Question 1

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.

Accepted Answer

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

Question 2

I've been having this recurring discomfort in the upper left side of my chest for about 45 days now. It all started after I went for a run, breathing through my mouth in the cold weather, and I felt like I'd somehow injured the tissues on that side of my chest from the pressure. The discomfort seems to come and go, sometimes with clear mucus when I cough. I did have a bout of cough and cold about a month ago, and since then, the discomfort seems to be happening more often. I've already seen a general physician who said not to worry and gave me some meds, but they haven't really helped. There's no history of heart issues or high blood pressure in my family. What do you think could be going on?

Accepted Answer

take tablet mucinac for 5 days

Question 3

My dad has been smoking for the past 20 years, and now he's dealing with breathing issues. I'm wondering if there's any medical treatment or process that can help clear his lungs and improve his condition, besides the regular medicines? He has cut down on smoking, but the breathing problems are still there. What options do we have?
