Feeling of tightness in chest
My mother is having chest discomfort since 2 days. She is having issues in deep breathing. She feels there is some restriction while taking deep breaths. She used to get some relief by yawning but now even yawns are not coming for her. Oxygen levels are normal. Should we get a chest xray or ct scan done?

Post covid symptoms
Hi, My uncle got covid symptoms on 8th Apr,21 and tested positive after a week and then few days later he was hospitalized for 2 weeks.. His oxygen level had dropped to 85 and his lungs got damaged to 50%. Later , He was stable and got discharged and he was not having any symptoms after coming home...only weakness he had...
He is a diabetic patient and he was prescribed insulin but his Sugar level is not getting down(300-370) now...
Other reports were normal...
And we again consulted the same doctor he has doubled the dose of insulin...
Also, since 3 4 days he is feeling bit headache in evening or night time and light fever of max 99 not more than that...
Had also one day light chest pain 3 4 days back but for only once..
So, is that fine or we should worry abt or how much chances of getting black fungus??
Request you to suggest on this.

Covid,pneumonia,medrol 16mg,chest pain
I was detected covid+ with pneumonia 6 months and was prescribed medrol 16mg for 11 days. After a month of treatment, I started getting chest pain on left side and is still occurring till today. Is this a sign of mucormycosis? I consulted multiple doctors during this 6 months but was either adviced for gastric issue or muscular pain and medicated accordingly but no improvement. CT score was 9/25. Echo, ECG and X-Ray appeared normal. I am currently taking septilin which gives some relief but as soon as i stop pain starts. I am really worried now with more cases of mucormycosis. Can mucormycosis happens after 6 months of covid and steroid stoppage?

Coughing after taking meals
My mother underwent treatmeant for COVID pneumonia for 11 days in the hospital. She was discharged from the hospital 2 weeks back. The CT scan report showed no infection in the lungs after treatment, but showed the growth of fibrosis.
She is currently on steroids, heavy antibiotics and nebulisation to treat the lung infection and fibrosis. Please find attached her prescription.
For the past 3-4 days she has started to cough after having her meals and ejects wet cough (white in colour). But she feels better and stops coughing after warm water gargles.
Why could she be coughing after eating? Should we get her chest x-ray and CT scan done?
Best,
