I have a lingering severe cough that started around day 10 after having COVID-19. I have chest congestion, chest pain that radiates to my back, and a wheeze when I exhale. Bromhexine helps with mucus, and Ventolin temporarily relieves chest tightness. I'm 48 years old, female, and have a history of pneumonia. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I am not sure if I should go to the ER or not. I believe I have food poisoning. It started on Wednesday about 2 hours after I ate fast food breakfast. I am having excessive diarrhea, vomiting, stomach pains, my fever has been around the 100-101 range consistently. I have not been able to eat anything. I can barely keep any water or Gatorade down. I feel shaky and like I'm going to pass out. I have seen no improvement of my symptoms.

I've been experiencing breathing issues and chest tightness for about a month. I initially thought it was due to posture, but it persists regardless of my position. Recently, the middle of my chest has been tight for extended periods. I'm a 25-year-old male with no current medications, only doxycycline for skin care. The breathing issues worsen with exertion, such as during landscape work, leading to fatigue and the need to take breaks. Is this severe enough to warrant a visit to urgent care?

My periods are skipped, and this is the first week for the same. I used a pill for emergency to hold the period before 5 days. Are there any medications or foods I should take to get my periods back?
