My dad's been dealing with a fever since February 26th, and even though we started the meds I mentioned before, there's been no improvement. I then went to a pulmonary doctor who mentioned an infection after viewing the X-ray. I'm worried because apart from his hemoglobin level being 11, the blood test came back normal. They ruled out typhoid and malaria, so I'm at a bit of a loss here. Can you offer any advice on what steps to take next?

View allI'm back home from corona isolation because I tested positive for asymptomatic COVID-19. I've been isolating since July 28th and now I'm in home quarantine. While I was in isolation, my blood oxygen levels never dropped below 97, and I never had a fever, just a bit of tiredness. Since yesterday, I've noticed I need to take a long breath every 45 minutes, but then I'm able to breathe normally and can do pranayam exercises without a problem. After a 6-minute walk, my blood oxygen level is still 99 and I haven't felt any chest congestion or cough. I'm currently taking Pehist syrup and vitamin C tablets. The doctor at the quarantine center said I'd be fine, but I'm worried. Could this be just anxiety, or should I be concerned since I can't stop thinking about it?

I've been experiencing this weird, persistent cough once a day or so, and each time it comes with this white, sticky phlegm. It only seems to stop after I somehow manage to clear it all out. Sometimes I even have to force myself to vomit just to get it out of my throat. Also, I've noticed a whistling or wheezing sound when I breathe in while Im coughing. Could you help me figure out what's going on, and suggest who I should reach out to for help?

I'm struggling with a chest cold that's making my chest feel so tight, and I'm having a hard time breathing properly. There's a wheezing sound too. I've tried everything like nebulizing and nerve injections, but nothing seems to help. It's still really tight. What else can I do or try to get some relief?
