Question

I'm 26 and I've noticed that my oxygen level on the pulse oximeter is usually at 95, but sometimes it drops to 93 before going back to 95. My pulse rate is mostly around 92. I don't have any other symptoms, so I'm wondering if this is normal. Which type of doctor should I see about this?

A pulse oximeter reading of 93-95% is generally within an acceptable range, though it can vary slightly depending on factors like positioning or movement. Since you dont have other symptoms, it's likely normal, but if you're concerned, consulting a **general physician** or a **pulmonologist** for a thorough evaluation would be a good idea.
