Can you help me understand what's going on with my lungs? My report mentioned that the bronchovascular field is prominent in the bilateral lung fields, and there are some small calcific foci in the right lung field. I've also noticed a little sputum forming and coming out. Should I be worried about these findings?

View allI'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've been having trouble breathing for more than two months now, especially when I laugh or talk, and it feels like I'm out of breath easily. I went through an X-ray and a cardiac check, and both seem to be normal, but I'm still not sure what's causing it. Can you help me figure out what might be going on?
It sounds like you may be experiencing a form of anxiety or stress-related breathing difficulty, especially since both your X-ray and cardiac check are normal. It could also be related to muscle tension in the chest or diaphragm. I recommend consulting a respiratory specialist or considering breathing exercises to help manage this.

Is it dangerous if my dad's oxygen saturation is swinging between 81 and 93? He's suspected to be COVID positive, but he doesn't have any breathing problem. He's normal otherwise while we're waiting for his PCR test results. Should he be on certain medication or something?
Low oxygen saturation between 81-93% can be concerning, even if he's not feeling breathless. It's important to monitor him closely while awaiting the PCR results. If his oxygen levels continue to stay low or worsen, he may need supplemental oxygen or further medical care, so it's best to consult with his doctor for advice.
