Hi doctor, I am covid patient and completed 18 days. When we measure our sp02 while reclining...then it comes around 93-96 max but when we sit and measure then it comes around 98. Is this behaviour ok or should we take it seriously ??

What is the saturation on walking ? 93-96 is surely not normal . Any breathlessness ? What treatment did you receive for covid ? Any CT chest done ? Would like to discuss in detail . You may require further treatment. Kindly consider for a personal consult for detailed discussion and treatment plan
