I'm a little worried because I've been dealing with a lot of symptoms like excessive yawning, a constant feeling of needing to yawn, and even sometimes feeling like I can't breathe properly, all for about 45 days now. I also have a stuffy nose, my nasal turbinates seem enlarged, and I have post-nasal drip. I was diagnosed with allergic rhinitis earlier, but these symptoms don't seem to be going away. Is there a chance that this has turned into allergic asthma or maybe even bronchial asthma, even though I havent started coughing or felt any chest pressure?

I'm wondering if regular exercise might help with the occasional pain and discomfort I still feel in my lungs after finishing my pulmonary TB treatment. My sputum test came back negative, and the test was done during a bronchoscopy. Do you think there's any specific exercise that would be beneficial? I'm really hoping to avoid going back on medication. My treatment wrapped up in July 2021.

there are some respiratory yoga exercises you can practice

I'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.
