I'm having some trouble with breathing after meals. It's like shortness of breath, and I find it hard to breathe properly. It's kind of worrying me, and I'm not sure what's causing it. Could this be related to something I'm eating or how I'm eating? Would love your insight on this.

I'm really worried about my dad. He has mild pneumonia symptoms based on a recent CT scan and is experiencing some breathing issues. He's tested positive for COVID-19, and his SpO2 levels are around 93-94. We tried to get a hospital bed for him, but none are available. What should we do now? He's currently isolating at home.

Tab amoxicillin for 5 days, Tab paracetamol, tab acetylcysteine for 5 days
