Question

I've been tested positive for Covid on July 30, 2020, but I didn't have any symptoms. They admitted me to the hospital anyway and did all sorts of tests like CBC, kidney, liver, d-dimer, ferritin, and some ECG and chest X-ray, and everything came back normal. I got out after a week and have been quarantining at home for six days now. The past three days, I've been feeling like I have this chest fullness, kind of like gastric issues. I went back to the hospital and got another X-ray, which looks fine. But my Spo2 levels have been always between 93 and 96 since I got home. I'm not really experiencing anything else, but I'm worried about how to improve my Spo2 levels. Can you give me some advice?

Question

I'm really concerned because I took a hard fall in the bathroom and slammed my chest on a tap. It's been about 34 days now and the chest pain hasn't gone away. I did a chest X-ray, and I'm worried if there's anything wrong with it. Could there be a chance of pneumothorax? Also, I have to fly tomorrow and I'm not sure if it's safe to fly with this kind of pain. What do you think?

Question

I'm looking at my chest X-ray and I'm a bit anxious. Can you tell me if everything looks okay? How does it compare to what a normal X-ray should look like? I had COVID about 1.5 months ago and I'm just trying to make sure my recovery is on track.

Question

Ive been having this weird shortness of breath lately, and its causing me to yawn a lot. I do feel a bit better after yawning, but its been going on for a really long time. I think its related to my allergies, probably from dust and pollution. Any advice on what I can do to get some relief?
