Mucormycosis risk
I am 29, non diabetic (after meal 110 sugar).
Got covid on 10th april.
Just took azithro, doxy and calpol and was recovered well in home isolation in 7-8 days.
But I continued steam inhalation "1 time in a day" for 1 month, till 20th May. Duration was 5-10 minutes. RO water was used. Streamer was NOT used, just clean fry pans were used.
Since last 10 days, no steam...
I am fit and fine by god's grace.
But news suggests steam inhalation can cause mucor.
is once a day was excess?
Am I at some kind of risk?? Or 6 weeks of covid are over so all fine.

Nothing to worry and stop taking steam inhalation if you are not having any symptoms and at the same time do not take any cold food and sweet food and oil food items and do not use AC for a few weeks.
Watch for the any blackish discoloration in the mouth under the tongue and in the ear and in the nose as a regular check up once in a day.
Otherwise nothing to worry and if you want for other details you can contact me.
