I'm really concerned and was wondering how much oxygen someone with a positive COVID-19 diagnosis typically needs? Can you explain the process and what signs to watch for when oxygen might be necessary? Appreciate any insights you can share.

View allI've been noticing a bit of light blood mixed with sputum when I spit in the morning these past few days, and it's really starting to worry me. This started happening after I had a fever, headache, and dizziness for a day, but now the blood thing is the only issue, and it freaks me out. My dad passed away from colorectal cancer, so I'm super anxious about anything cancer-related. Could this be something serious like lung cancer or another type of cancer? I'm really scared and would like to know what you think.

I'm wondering why I sometimes have a whistling sound when I breathe and why people say I breathe heavily. I've always struggled to control my breathing, even during yoga, and I get out of breath when climbing stairs. People often say it's because I'm overweight, but even when I wasn't, I still had these breathing issues. Could there be another reason for this?

I'm experiencing something strange with my breathing. Even though my nasal passages are clear, it feels like there's something blocking my inhalation right from the start. When I tilt my head back, I notice I can inhale more deeply. Is there an actual difference in my breathing when I do that? Also, during exhalation, I feel the air coming out just fine, but could this be a problem for my lungs? Would love some clarity on this.
