Need more info: When did you have Covid infection? If you have breathing difficulty, go to a hospital. If this is symptoms persisting after recovery from infection, give it time and it will improve. Visit this site for info and talk to your doctor at the next opportunity: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2771581 Wish you good health!

Evaluation: A follow chest image and assessment for an inhaled bronchodilator is indicated if you are experiencing respiratory distress. If you are comfortable, continue to monitor your temperature, drink fluids and rest. Take Tylenol rather than Motrin to control fever. Ask your physician if a bronchodilator may be prescribed to try until evaluated.
