I've been dealing with a cough for the past month and my fever keeps hovering between 102 and 104. I just got my test results back: my Mentaux test is positive and my chest X-ray shows some bronchetactics changes in the left upper-mid zone. There's also been mention of bronchial wall thickening and nodular densities in the upper zone. The report says it could be an infectious or inflammatory issue. I'm really worriedis this something serious that needs immediate attention, or is it likely to improve on its own? Any advice on how to handle this would be really appreciated.

I'm a bit worried about something I read in a report: there's something called a "suspicious infiltration" in my right upper lobe. I work full-time, and I'm wondering if that's okay, considering this condition? Should I be concerned about continuing my job as usual?

I'm dealing with some discomfort lately I've got this cough, and it feels like there's phlegm stuck in my throat and nose. It's making it hard for me to clear my airways, and I'm also feeling pretty fatigued. Breathing is a bit uncomfortable too, but I don't have a fever or anything. Could you help me figure out what might be going on?

I'm really worried about how to manage my loved one's recovery from Covid. Their oxygen levels are mostly stable around 90, but whenever they start coughing, it drops really low to around 82 or 83. What can I do to help get rid of this cough? And are there any specific foods or things that can help boost their oxygen levels and ease the cough a bit?
