I'm 29 and have been having trouble breathing for the last four days. I'm feeling really uneasy about it and would really appreciate some advice on what might be going on.

I'm feeling really confused and a bit worried after I got my results from a pre-medical exam for work on Wednesday. My X-ray results mentioned something about "pulmo clearance," and I'm not sure what that's supposed to mean. I haven't had any issues with TB, or even a cough in the past year. Can you help me understand what I should do next?

"Pulmo clearance" in your X-ray result likely indicates that there are no significant issues or abnormalities in your lungs, and your lungs appear clear. Its reassuring that you haven't experienced symptoms like coughing, especially related to tuberculosis (TB). Given your history, its important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further clarification and ensure that all pre-employment health requirements are met.

Hey, so it's been over four months since I recovered from COVID, but I'm constantly checking my SPO2 levels, like 40 times a day. It's usually around 98, but if it drops to 97 or 96 for just a few seconds, I start to panic, and my heartbeat goes up. When I had COVID, my CT score was 12, and after two months in April, it went down to 7. I often leave my finger on the oximeter for at least 10 minutes, and it fluctuates between 96 and 98, sometimes even 95 to 98. Should I still be doing this? I'm really scared. What should I do?

don't get scared , you are fit and fine

My mom was on oxygen support for about a week, ranging from 284 to 55. Her HRCT score was 1825, which later dropped to 1525. When she was discharged, her O2 level was at 93, but it hasn't improved since. It even drops when she has other health issues like diarrhea. Any suggestions on a good treatment plan to help get her oxygen level back to normal?

do some breathing exercises and do yoga
