I'm having a bit of a hard time breathing during the evenings and mornings especially when it's winter. Is there an inhaler I could use for this?

I got over a mild case of COVID last month and it lasted about 34 days. However, it's been over two weeks since then, and I'm still getting these bouts of dry coughing. It's not all the time, but it's still happening now and then. There's no cold or runny nose with it. Any idea what's going on or what I can do about it?

I'm looking over the HRCT report and noticed that my SpO2 levels are fluctuating. They usually stay above 90, but I'm concerned about why there's any fluctuation at all. Can you help explain what might be causing this?
