Can you get lung inflammation from covid?

After having covid I developed lung inflammation. What should I do?

1 Answer

Yes!! And lung inflammation is the mayor concern and the major illness that arises. Coronavirus is unique in its way of sticking to respiratory membranes. The virus sticks and holds and enters. Our body’s response to this is a surge of white blood cells and lymph cells to consume viruses, and plasma follows. Lungs become wet and heavy with these inflammatory materials, and this impairs respirations.
