I've been dealing with a cough for about 20 days now. It's gotten a bit better, but my x-ray showed something called bilateral broncho vascular prominence. Can you explain what that means? What should I do next? I'm kinda worried about it.

I'm dealing with COVID for a second time and am currently on my 5th day of quarantine. When I check my oxygen levels with a pulse oximeter, the readings vary depending on which finger I use. Which figure should I trust? And also, my ct value on the RT-PCR test came out to be 27. Does that indicate anything concerning or am I in the safe zone?

Recovery is around 2-3 weeks.Continue all the medications.

I've been taking the pill Septilin once a day for the past year since I got diagnosed with a respiratory allergy. I usually experience coughing, chest pressure, and a whistling sound when breathing at night. I'm also on an anxiety pill, Vetodep 20, once a day. Can I get the COVID-19 vaccine, and if so, what precautions should I be aware of?

donot take covid vaccine if you are having active symptoms of allergy
