I'm COVID positive, but my chest X-ray is normal, and my CRP and D-dimer levels are really low. My blood tests, liver function tests, and vitamin levels are normal too, and I don't have diabetes, fever, or body aches. My oxygen levels are above 96 most of the time. It's been almost 14 days since I tested positive. Im really puzzled because I still feel like I can't breathe properly through my nose, almost like the air isn't getting in. It feels like I'm breathing rapidly and shallowly. I do have sinusitis, a deviated nasal septum, and nasal polyps, but I've had those for 3 years and theyve been inactive with no symptoms until now. Could these be causing problems now because of COVID? I'm feeling really down and dont know which doctor I should consult about this. Any advice?

View allI've noticed a lump in front of my left tragus, and it's painless even when I touch or press it. It also seems to be mobile. I'm not sure if I should be concerned or if there's any specific way I should manage it. Could it be something serious or is it likely harmless?
This lump could be a benign condition such as a sebaceous cyst or a lipoma. It is important to monitor the lump for any changes in size, shape, or symptoms. If the lump causes any discomfort or grows in size, it is recommended to consult a doctor for further evaluation. In case of infection or inflammation, antibiotics may be prescribed. If necessary, the lump can be surgically removed.
