I've been yawning a lot and feeling like I constantly need to take deep breaths, almost like I can't get enough air. It's really weird and a little worrying. Is this something I should be concerned about? Could it be related to stress or something else?

I've noticed that my oxygen saturation was between 99 to 100 before I got COVID. Even though I just had a mild case with some cold and fever for a day and a mild cough, my SpO2 dropped to 95-96 now. I'm wondering why this happened and how long it might take for it to get back to normal. Could you help me understand this?

Normal, nothing to worry ok.

I'm hearing this weird noise when I breathe in and out, and it seems to be coming from my lower lungs under the ribcage. A couple of days ago, it was more at the back, but now it's shifted to right under the ribcage in front. Should I be concerned about this, or is it common?

do chest x ray check for pneumonia
