Question

I'm really worried about this sharp, razor blade feeling Ive been having in my lungs, especially when I cough. Its a constant pain, but at the same time, it feels inconstant, if that makes sense. And on top of that, I've been running a high fever. I haven't consulted a doctor yet, but should I be urgently concerned about these symptoms? What could be causing them?

Question

I'm a bit worried because I did an RTPCR test for COVID and it came back negative, but I'm still having trouble with wheezing in my chest and some coughing for about 45 days now. I don't have a fever or other symptoms, and the breathing difficulty isn't too bad, but the wheezing is definitely there. I have asthma and normally use my Serflo 250 inhaler only around 10-15 times a year. Just recently, about 5 days ago, I had a really bad allergy attack. I'm not sure what to make of all this. What should I do?

Question

I'm experiencing some issues that started last night and I'm a bit worried. My Spo2 levels fluctuate between 97 and 98, but they dip to 95 or 96 if I lie down at a certain angle. I've also been dealing with gastric problems and a heavy chest. Whenever I take a deep breath, it triggers a cough. Can you help me understand what's going on and what I should do?

Question

I've been hearing mixed things about steaming and its effectiveness for people affected by corona. Some sources like blogs and newspapers say it doesn't help at all, while debates on news channels and YouTube videos also suggest it's not beneficial. I'm really confused and concerned. Could you shed some light on whether steaming is actually useful for someone dealing with corona?
