I'm having a hard time breathing sometimes and it's kind of worrying. I just got over Covid-19. Have noticed I feel better after burping. Could there be a connection between the shortness of breath and burping? What's happening with my body?

View allI've been dealing with this dry cough for 25 days and now I'm starting to feel pain in my chest whenever I cough. My breathing's gotten faster too, especially at night - the cough is so bad that I can't even sleep. What could be causing this, and what should I do?
Coughing can inflame lungs and air passages, leading to chest tightness. This symptom should improve when the cough clears up

I recently got a chest X-ray as part of a visa medical exam, and the report said both my hila are prominent. I'm really concerned about what this means. Can you explain the possible causes and what I might be able to do to address this before my retest?
Prominent hila on a chest X-ray can be caused by various conditions such as infections, inflammation, or even tumors. To determine the exact cause, further evaluation may be needed. In the meantime, to reduce inflammation and promote healing, you can take over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medications like ibuprofen. I recommend taking Ibuprofen 400mg every 6 hours as needed for pain and inflammation. However, it is important to follow up with a healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
