I've been having some trouble with my breathing lately. It's like I can't breathe properly, even when I'm just sitting or going about my day-to-day stuff. Sometimes I feel this tightness in my chest, and I'm not sure what's causing it. Can you help me understand what might be going on? I'm a bit worried.

I'm really concerned about my dad. He had moderate COVID-19 and was hospitalized for five days, he's been discharged since January 1st, and all his reports were fine in mid-January when he was tested negative. It's been about a month and a half now, but he still has this mild dry cough. There are no other symptoms, though. How long can you have a cough after COVID, and should we think about getting him tested again? Any advice you have would be really great to hear.

some cases upto 12 weeks

I'm having some trouble with my breathing latelyit feels like deep breaths are kinda stressing me out. And it gets worse when I'm in an air-conditioned space; it feels like I'm suffocating after just a few minutes. Do you have any idea what might be going on or any suggestions for what I should do?

That could be due to allergy,try to identify the allergen and avoid it, visit Physician for evaluation and appropriate management

I'm having some trouble with my breathing, and my nose feels really blocked. It's also making me feel kind of nauseous. Plus, there's this sharp pain when I touch the upper right part of my chest. I went to the doctor, and he gave me antibiotics and something for asthma, and that helped a lot. But I'm wondering, could my smoking, about five cigarettes a day, be making this worse? Should I be worried about any long-term effects?

Yes,continue same treatment as advised by the physician.
