I'm really worried because while I was drinking a liquid, I suddenly felt a terrible pain in my chest and lung area that lasted for a couple of minutes. I'm scared that I might have gotten some fluid in my lungs. What should I do? Is this something serious?

I'm really worried because his oxygen levels are dropping, but the RTPCR test came back negative. We're still concerned it might be Covid. The problem is there's no oxygen cylinder or bed available, and we can't get through to the MH LKO team members for any support or medicine. We feel so helpless watching his condition worsen. Can you please advise us on what to do?

I'm a bit concerned about this white spot that showed up on my chest x-ray about 25 days ago. It was on my left upper lobe lung area. My doctor had me on antibioticsclindamycin and moxifloxacinfor three weeks, and the spot seems to be getting smaller and less noticeable. I'm wondering if I should keep taking the antibiotics until the spot is completely gone. The doctor said it was a patch from a previous infection. Does this mean it's benign since it's not getting bigger, just shrinking?

no need of continuation of antibiotics. it will heal on its own

Hey, my dad tested positive back in February. He was in the hospital for about 5 days and got 6 vials of remdesivir. It's been a month since then, and we just got his HRCT scan done. The results show a CT score of 725. Should I be worried about this? Does it mean he's still dealing with pneumonia?

no its nothing to worry
