Oxygen level
My oxygen (Spo2) when measured in pulse oximeter is 93. But when I take a little bit deep breathe it's 98-99. X-ray, ECHO, ECG all normal. What could be the reason? Is the reading for deep breathe correct?

What sort of oximeter are you using? Most of the oximeters available in the market today don't give an accurate reliable reading. Do you have any symptoms associated with it? Are you post covid? Kindly book a consultation via whatsap on 62963*44728 for further advice.
