I had a walking pneumonia when I was around 12. My only symptom was chest pain when I’d breathe while lying down

It became much worse, it was barely noticable like 5 hrs ago

I'm worried, it quickly got worse, I coughed some small thick thing

I will if it doesn't get any better, might have to check my oxygen levels (oximeter)? I don't have fever anymore.

From webmd, seems like it takes longer for bacteria to cause it. Though they also lost other things that can cause it like viruses, mold. Not sure if those are shorter times to cause it. Does say fall is the season for walking pneumonia

On yeah, forgot the important part, my mom contacted someone with COVID about two weeks ago, then I did have a fever and got better quickly with minor symptoms. Yeah, I might have pneumonia.

Thank you, I'll drink tons of water and maybe oximeter tomorrow morning.
