It is generally recommended to seek medical attention if your SPO2 levels drop below 94%. Since your levels are fluctuating between 93-94 and going up to 96-97 with lung exercises, it indicates that your lungs are able to compensate to some extent. However, it is important to monitor your oxygen levels closely. I recommend you to continue with the lung exercises and monitor your SPO2 levels regularly. If your levels consistently drop below 94% without improvement, it would be advisable to seek medical attention for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can consider taking medications like Dexamethasone (6mg once daily) and Remdesivir (200mg on day 1, followed by 100mg once daily for 4-9 days) under medical supervision to help manage your COVID-19 symptoms.
