I'm really concerned because I've been coughing for about 8 to 10 days now, and just today I noticed blood when I cough. This isn't the first time it's happened; about two years ago, I experienced something similar and went to a physician for a medical checkup, and with some treatment over a month, it got better. Should I be worried and seek medical help again right away, or is there something else I can try first? Could this be related to the previous issue I had back then?

I was curious if the lung fibrosis that develops after having COVID is usually restrictive or does it tend to be progressive? I've attached my CT scan report from after my COVID treatment for some context. During my hospital stay, I received remdesivir injections.
Post-COVID lung fibrosis is typically restrictive, meaning it limits lung expansion and reduces lung capacity. However, its progression can vary depending on the severity and individual response to treatment. If you have concerns, please consult your doctor for a more personalized assessment.
