I've still been having trouble with my breathing even though it's been three months since I recovered from Covid. It just doesn't seem to be getting better. What could be causing this, and are there any ways to help speed up my recovery?

View allI'm feeling a bit concerned because my family doctor suggested I get my chest X-ray PA report attested due to some weakness I've been experiencing. I'm a little anxious since I had a history of tuberculosis back in 2018. Could you help me understand if everything looks okay in this report?
Patient is advised sputum for AFB and microscopy.

I'm having a hard time breathing and feel like I need to open my mouth every now and then just to catch a breath. It's weird because my breathing seems normal when I'm sleeping, but it's like something's blocking my throat. I don't have a fever or body aches, but my chest feels heavy and I've got this gassy feeling too. I tried holding my breath for 30 seconds and it was fine, but I still need to take deep breaths through my mouth, and even then, it doesn't feel quite right. What could be going on?
Azeflo nasal spray 7ml to both the nostrils is advised to the patient for 5 days.Steam inhalation is also advised to the patient.ENT opinion is advised to the patient.

I'm a bit confused about my chest x-ray results. It mentions "suspicious infiltrates in the right apex" and suggests considering pneumonia. Does that mean I might have pneumonia, even though I don't feel any breathing issues or chest pain, and haven't had a cold or flu?
A chest X-ray showing suspicious infiltrates in the right apex could suggest pneumonia, but it doesn't confirm the diagnosis on its own. Since you're not experiencing symptoms like breathing difficulties, chest pain, or a cold, it might be worth discussing the results further with your doctor to evaluate whether further tests or monitoring are needed.
