View allI'm really concerned about my mom's health. We've been checking her spo2 levels since August using a pulse oximeter, and while the rest of my family stays above 95, hers fluctuates between 89 and 92. It's October now, and the readings haven't changed much. I'm worried about what might be causing this and if it's indicative of any particular health issue. Could this be something serious?

I'm dealing with a lung infection because of the climate here in Delhi. My doctor suggested taking TelekastL and Sereflo. I'm just a bit concerned about using TelekastL for a long period. Is it really safe? And should I be reconsidering living in Delhi if this is causing health issues? I'd really appreciate some insight into this.
Telekast-L (montelukast and levocetirizine) is generally safe for long-term use under medical supervision, but it may not address the root cause of a recurring lung infection. If Delhi's air quality consistently worsens your health, it may be worth considering relocating to a cleaner environment for long-term well-being.

I'm currently using a Foracort 200 inhaler and Nasonex nasal spray daily for asthma, which I got diagnosed with in 2018. I'm also taking Yasmin tablets due to PCOD. I'm wondering if it's safe for me to receive the COVID vaccine considering these medications. Could you please provide some guidance?
yes
