My dad and husband both tested positive for COVID and they had a fever last week. The fever's gone now, but they're both coughing now and then, especially when talking, laughing, and sometimes even when sleeping. They're not having any chest pain or breathing issues, so I'm wondering if steam inhalation would help? Also, are there any warning signs we should be on the lookout for?

View allI'm having this random shortness of breath every now and then during the day, but strangely, it doesn't happen while I'm sleeping. I first felt this back in December 2019, and it just stopped on its own then. But it's popping up again over the last few days, and I'm a bit worried about what's going on. Any ideas on what might be causing this?
do chest x ray to know the reason

I'm really worried about my husband. He's been diagnosed with acute bronchitis, but he's still running a fever after four days of taking the prescribed medication. The doctor gave him Acebrophyline, acetylcysteine, Cefixime, montelukast, levocetrizine, and paracetamol. I'm confused though, is acute bronchitis usually caused by a virus or bacteria? Could there be an issue with these medicines not working, or should we be concerned about something else?
medicine which is given is sufficient , give paracetamol 650 mg three times in a day

I've been smoking for about 3 years and decided to quit a few weeks ago, but I'm having these random pains in my chest and back where I used to feel inflammation when I smoked. Is this normal after quitting? Should I be worried about these pains, or is it just part of my body adjusting to not smoking anymore?
