Post covid symptoms

2021-05-05 15:04:54
I am getting lots of saliva with cough after food and after waking up even after a month of covid recovery. Also pain in different areas around chest sometimes. Recently got acidity and gastric issues as well. No fever .SPO2 is also 97-98. Should I go for Rtpcr test and CT-scan? Does it requires any further daigonsis or test?

As it's more than a month since you recovered, there is no need for RTPCR as of now. Your SpO2 is also within normal limits. Try to take adequate rest as your body needs it to regain strength and recuperate from the CoViD virus attack. You may go for a HRCT Chest if you were moderately or severly affected by CoViD to assess the condition of your lungs. For the issue that you mentioned take a PPI instead of Antacid. Also avoid spicy and oily foods, take plenty of fluids and fresh fruits and vegetables, sleep early, do some light excercises and deep breathing.
