I'm feeling a bit worried about my health right now. After having a fever, I tested positive for Covid on November 19th and started with medication from a govt doctor. A few days later, I consulted a private doctor who suggested a CHET Test HRTC, and I've just received the results. It says there are multi-focal small ground glass opacities in my lungs, predominantly on the sides and back. The CORADS is 6 and the CT severity score is 52. Im currently on a few medications - Asthakind DX, Dexona 0.5mg, Scavista 12mg, Esoga cap, Immugard, Calpol 650mg, and doing mobilization with Budecort 1mg. I'm just not sure if my report is good or if the meds are doing their job. I've started to experience chest pain and weakness. My current SPO2 is 98, pulse rate is 85, and my temperature is 98.6. Could you advise on my health and how my report looks?

Based on your CT scan showing multi-focal ground glass opacities, it's important to monitor your condition closely, especially with ongoing chest pain and weakness. Your medications, including Asthakind DX, Dexona, and others, seem appropriate for managing symptoms, but it's crucial to follow up with your doctor regularly to ensure you're recovering well. Keep monitoring your oxygen levels and seek immediate care if symptoms worsen. Your SPO2 of 98% is a positive sign.

I'm really worried about my dadhe's 53 and caught COVID on March 30th. He had a fever for four days, and after talking to the doctor, we did an HRCT of his chest. It showed a mild infection with about 10-15% of lung involvement. The doc gave him some medicine called Ferocort and Syncrobreath, plus a cough syrup. But the thing is, he's still coughing a lot. I'm just wondering, how long do you think it'll take for the cough to get better?
for cough to reduce it will take 1 week
