I'm experiencing something a little odd with my breathing. Most of the time, I can breathe normally, but whenever I try to take a really deep breath, it feels a bit difficult to fully inhale. It's not constant, only happens sometimes, but it's got me a bit worried. Is this something I should be concerned about? Any ideas on what might be causing it?

I'm really worried because my dad has a chest CT scan score of 525 and he's been diagnosed with COVID. Does this mean he's in a lot of danger? Should we get him admitted to the hospital right away? It's really concerning.

Physician opinion is advised to the patient.

I found out I had COVID on April 20th, and although I'm on medication, I'm mostly just taking vitamins and that ascoril ls cough syrup now. My cough is still really bad, especially in the evenings and at night. This morning I coughed so much that I noticed some blood in my sputum a couple of times. What should I do to get better? Would love some advice.

take a course of antibiotics
