I'm a bit concerned and curious about something. After having COVID a month ago, all my symptoms have gone away, and my SpO2 levels have been normal for a while. My chest X-ray came back normal too, which is reassuring, but I'm wondering if its still possible for there to be any fibrosis that wouldnt show up yet? Or does a normal X-ray mean everything's clear? Im just trying to understand what a normal X-ray really tells me at this point. I'm 34 and havent had any other symptoms.

I'm really concerned about my mom. She's 69 and her oxygen levels are between 92 and 94. She had some mild chest congestion before, and the doctor gave her Azee 500 to take for five days. Is her low oxygen something we should be worried about?

no, it might due to positional variation

I'm looking at my chest X-ray and I'm a bit anxious. Can you tell me if everything looks okay? How does it compare to what a normal X-ray should look like? I had COVID about 1.5 months ago and I'm just trying to make sure my recovery is on track.
