Greetings! Thank you for your questions.

First and foremost, we truly understand your concerns regarding your symptoms and other health problems you might be facing. Shortness of breath, like some other COVID-19 symptoms that you might have such as cough and flu, occur because of how the disease affects the lungs.

Normally, the lungs take in air (oxygen) with each of your breath and tiny air sacs (in the lung) called alveoli capture this oxygen and transfer it to nearby blood vessels. When this inflammatory immune response continues to happen, it inhibits the regular transfer of gases, including oxygen, in the lungs, and fluid can build up.

At this moment, you are suggested to follow instructions from your doctor at the hospital and call for doctor’s help if your symptoms get worse.
