Uncomfortable in Chest

I was covid positive on 25.09.2021. Took Fabiflu and other antibiotics for 5 days recovered and was tested Negative on 09.04.2021. I regained my taste, smell and feel completely fine till last week. This week I started having bowel movement frequently i.e. 3 times a day. Mostly after eating or drinking. No loose motions it's like pellets but not more than 3 time a day. Consulted Paracto and got better now after using the medicines. Now since two days I am feeling little heavy in chest but no pain or no breathing problems. Taking steam twice a day. Using multivitamin tablets once a day. Pulse oximeter is showing 98 when checked after every 4 hours. I feel like some light weight on chest. Please suggest the remedy.

Second dose of covishield

Hi Please suggest if I shall take my grandfather for a second dose. First dose on 10th March (had minimal symptoms just weakness). 8 weeks gap ends around 5 May. So we need to take him to get vaccinated before that. But the covid cases are increasing and we're worried he might contract covid in the hospital. Also, he has asthma and has been on external oxygen support since a year (10 hours a day on doctor's advice last year). What's the best decision to take at this point?
