Chest pain after covid?

DD is 5 days out of isolation after a mild dose of Covid. Nothing more than a sniffle. But now she's complaining of chest pain and a feeling that she can't take in deep breaths. Like she doesn't want to exercise or exert herself.
Is this normal?
She's an adult by the way! 23 years old. And double jabbed and boosted

It's early days, right?

She should contact her GP or 111 if she’s having chest pain and breathing feels difficult!
It could also be unrelated to Covid.

Any chest pain should be checked out. She should seek medical advice. I had 'mild' covid and chest pains worsened after isolation - I had a secondary chest infection requiring antibiotics - its apparently quite common for other infections to piggyback on after covid. Unfortunately for me that wasn't the end, a week later I was sent to hospital with worsening chest pain and breathlessness, and was discovered to have hazy patches of fluid/infection in both lungs, and a partial collapse on the left.

Should say the lung problems were caused by covid - even thought I only suffered mildly at the time. Im also early 30s and triple jabbed.
