Hey doctor, I've got a few concerns I hope you can help me with. So, I'm a 33-year-old guy weighing 100 kgs, and although I don't have any blood pressure issues, sugar, diabetes, or other conditions, I've been dealing with this COVID-19 thing. Tested positive on May 23 and got admitted on May 25. My CT score was 425 initially and went up to 2040 by June 1, but I was discharged from the hospital on June 7. Lately, I've noticed that my body temperature was 99.6F on both June 21 and 22 at 9 pm, and then it was 99F on June 23. Also, I've been coughing up thick white mucus from my lungs pretty frequently. I'm worriedis this a sign that the virus might still be spreading in my system? Would really appreciate any guidance you can give.

View allI'm a 22-year-old guy, and I've been smoking for the past year. I've had this chest pain for about 8 months now. I went to a cardiologist, and my cholesterol was high. He told me to lower it, which I did in a month, but the chest pain is still there. I went through ECG, echo, TMT, and a chest X-ray, and everything came back normal. The cardiologist said my heart's fine, but I still feel this pain. It's worse when I bend forward or take a deep breath, and its around the center and left side of my chest. I'm not sure what to do next. Should I be considering a chest CT scan? The cardiologist told me to just ignore the pain and said its not heart-related. I already quit smoking and changed my diet, but the pain hasn't gone away. What should my next step be?
do CT scan and review

I've been dealing with this persistent cough coming from deep in my lungs for 12 minutes straight, around 56 times a day. There's no fever, and it's not a wet cough. I went to a physician who ran a chest X-ray, blood reports, and urine test, but everything came back normal. They suggested I take Pantoprazole and Domperidone, Doxycycline, Diethylcarbamazine (100mg Hetrazan), and Levocetirizine with Montelukast (Montecope) for 5 days. After that, the doctor told me to keep going with Hetrazan and Montecope for another 10 days. Should I be concerned about something underlying that wasn't picked up in the tests? Is there anything else I should consider doing or asking about?
kindly continue the same treatment
