Persistent Shortness of Breath and Right

Had pneumonia 3 months ago with severe cough and yellow sputum for 20-25 days, followed by sudden right-sided chest pain. While deep-breath, walking, and heavy-lifting pain has mostly subsided, shortness of breath started 2-2.5 months later. Chest X-ray showed normal lungs but indicated a possible 7th rib fracture (?) on the right side. Spirometry (PFT) was normal, though SpO2 was 94%. Current treatment includes 10 days of antihistamines and Foracort 200 Inhaler (twice daily) for 1 month (completed 15 days), but breathlessness persists.
