I was covid positive and just got a negative test result on May 22nd. My SR value was 16.44. I didnt really have any big issues, just a little fever and body pain. But now, even after a month, my oxygen levels have dropped from 98 to 94 and they're not going up. Should I be worried? What should I do?

do chest x ray and review further

I'm really worried about my mom. She's 68 and has been having this pain in her lower breast and rib area. Her CECT chest scan says it's likely COVID pneumonia, but the RTPCR test came back negative. Her CTSI score is 325, and she's got a mild cough, but no fever. Could this still be COVID? What should I do next?

take tab paracetamol, tab acetylcysteine, tab multivitamin and take syrup salbutamol
