I'm really worried after getting my chest X-ray results. It says there's patchy opacity in the left lower zone and something about broncho vascular. What does this mean, and how serious could it be? Should I be concerned?

I'm really worried about my dad's asthma. He's been using Serollo 250 for the past 5 years because his asthma specialist recommended it. However, lately, every time we get a new one, it seems defective and isn't helping much. His asthma symptoms are actually getting worse, and Im really concerned. Is there an alternative to Serollo 250 that we might be able to find at local stores? I've attached a pic of the product if that helps.

My dad and husband both tested positive for COVID and they had a fever last week. The fever's gone now, but they're both coughing now and then, especially when talking, laughing, and sometimes even when sleeping. They're not having any chest pain or breathing issues, so I'm wondering if steam inhalation would help? Also, are there any warning signs we should be on the lookout for?

Salbutamol syrup 10 ml thrice daily for 7 days is advised to the patient. The signs include difficulty reathing,fever,loss of taste,chills,cough ,headache ,bluish discolouration of lips and face etc.
