Question 1

I recently tested positive for COVID-19 on April 16th and after treatment, I got a negative result on May 8th. However, I'm now experiencing some breathing issues. My average O2 saturation levels are around 97-98. Should I be considering any kind of scan or is there something specific I should be doing?

Accepted Answer

No need to worry, when you are tested negative you are free from disease, visit Physician for evaluation and appropriate management

Question 2

I'm often catching colds and having a cough with the changing weather. I've got allergies to dust and asthma runs in the familymy mom and grandma have it too. I'm thinking of sticking to Ayurvedic medicine because I'm worried about the long-term use of allopathic stuff. But this time, I noticed some blood in the phlegm when I blew my nose. Should I be concerned about this, or is it alright to keep using Ayurveda?

Accepted Answer

It is important to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and proper diagnosis. In the meantime, you can consider taking Ayurvedic medicine

Question 3

I've been feeling a bit uneasy lately. I came down with COVID on April 7th, and while I recovered by April 24th, I'm experiencing some new issues. My CT score was a 4 during the infection, and I had a follow-up CT scan on May 1st that turned out normal. But now I'm having shortness of breath, and my SPO2 is fluctuating between 96 and 98. In addition, there's a slight chest pain on the left whenever I brisk walk. I'm starting to worry if it's possible for lung fibrosis to develop even though my CT scan was normal post-COVID. What do you think?

Accepted Answer

there are least chances to develop fibrosis with ct scan being normal
