I'm having trouble breathing for the last couple of days. My chest just feels really heavy, and I'm needing to take deeper breaths than usual. Weirdly, my nose isn't blocked, and there isn't any pain anywhereeverything else seems normal. Can you help me figure out what's going on and how I can fix it?

I'm a bit worried because I've had this weird temperature fluctuation for the past four days. It's usually between 97-98 but sometimes hits 99, and I have a slight cough. I've been taking Calpol 650 twice daily, but it hasn't changed much. The last x-ray showed a patchy opacity in my left lung. Should I be concerned, or is this just normal? Any guidance would be appreciated.

Patient is advised tab augmentin 625 mg ,orally, thrice daily for 7 days, tab levocetrizine 10 mg bedtime for 5 days and syrup salbutamol 10 ml thrice dailly for 7 days .

Patient is advised x-ray chest and sputum for AFB and microscopy.
