I'm really struggling with chest pressure and tightness and it's been hard to breathe. I've stopped vaping for 3 days now, but the symptoms haven't improved. I don't have a fever, cold, or cough, but I'm feeling really anxious, almost like I have corona. I'm wondering if this could be due to poor eating habits or constipation? What can I do to feel better?

Yes, chest pressure and tightness along with severe shortness of breath can be related to poor eating habits and constipation. To help alleviate these symptoms, you can try taking over-the-counter laxatives such as Dulcolax or Miralax to relieve constipation. It is also important to drink plenty of water, eat a high-fiber diet, and engage in regular physical activity to improve digestion. You can try using an inhaler such as Ventolin to help open up your airways. Additionally, you can take an antacid like Tums or Maalox to relieve any acid reflux that may be contributing to your symptoms. It is also important to avoid vaping and seek medical attention if your symptoms worsen or if you develop any new symptoms.

I'm a bit confused about my CT score. During my COVID infection, my CT score was 425, and now, post-COVID, it's 725. The doctor mentioned it's normal but I'm not sure what this means. I finished home quarantine 45 days ago and tested negative twice. Should I be concerned about the CT score of 7, or is there anything specific I need to do?

I'm really worried about my dad. It's been 15 days since he got out of the hospital after having COVID-19. They told us to get a post-COVID test, and now the X-ray shows he's got hazy opacities in the mid to lower parts of both lungs. He also had pneumonia when he was dealing with COVID. Can you tell me what's going on and what we should do?
