Post covid bronchitis is very common. Fluctuating oxygen levels are expected during recovery. Don't worry. As long as your oxygen levels are above 90 you have nothing to worry.
Next Steps
Deep breathing exercises and Pranayama High protein diet and hydrate well
Health Tips
Do not do steam inhalation Avoid spicy food and cold drinks
