I'm trying to understand what the normal SpO2 level should be for a healthy person. If someone has a reading of 95 or 96, is that still considered normal, or is it lower than what it should be? I'm a bit concerned about the implications of these values.

View allI'm feeling really anxious about some symptoms I've been experiencing. Lately, I've noticed I'm short of breath, especially when I'm trying to sleep. It's been accompanied by a whizzing sound, and I'm not sure what's causing it. Plus, I've realized that one of my ankles is swollen on the inside. Could these things be related? What might be going on?

I've been dealing with COPD for a couple of years now, and I'm really struggling with nonstop coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath, and tightness in my chest. Every 12 hours or so, my nostrils get blocked too. I've been using inhalers like Esiflo 250 and Tiova, but they only seem to provide temporary relief before everything gets worse again. It's gotten to a point where I've had to be admitted to the hospital, and even with constant nebulization there, things have not improved. I'm feeling pretty discouraged and am looking for advice on how to get long-term relief. Any suggestions?
start levofloxaxin antibiotics and take oxygen for 2 hrs daily
