Asthma after covid
Hi,
I have been diagnosed with covid on 15th of April and symptoms of covid got better after 10-12 days but past four days I am feeling like breathing is not properly reaching my lungs.
I had asthma and pneumonia in my childhood days. I had my hrct scan after 5 days of covid symptoms but that showed no infection. Should I go for another ct scan?? Any
suggestions. Currently I am taking budacort inhaler.

Chest x ray is enough. For managing asthma and post covid, consult pulmonologist online.
