I've been having these Covid symptoms since this morning and I've already done an RT PCR test. After talking to a doctor on Practo, I started on some meds. My Spo2 levels seem to fluctuate between 93 and 97 on my left index finger, but they read 97-99 on my right index. Is it normal for the oxygen levels to be different on each finger? What's the ideal range I should be looking for? And at what point should I be worried? My fever is currently at 101F.

I'm 39 and I've been dealing with a cold and cough for a few days now. I tried taking Levolin Plus for my cough, but it feels like the phlegm is stuck in my chest and won't come out. I'm also hearing some noises from my ears. Can you recommend any medications, like a cough syrup or antibiotics, that might help me get some relief?

I've been dealing with a sore throat and this strange sensation between my chest. It was really intense when it first showed up, but then the next day, I felt completely fine. Now that sore throat is back, and my chest feels tight again. Any idea what might be going on or what I should do about it?
