I've been dealing with a cough that I had a couple of months ago, and while it seems to be gone now, I'm still having trouble with persistent mucus. Recently, I've started feeling some chest tightness and alternating mild to moderate pain. Just a few days ago, my throat was also bothering me. I'm really concerned about what's causing all these symptoms, especially during this lockdown. Any advice on what I should do?

I'm a bit confused and worried about my oxygen levels. A few months ago, I recovered from COVID and currently, I'm on medication for anxiety, as my doctor prescribed. I've noticed that when I'm at rest or walking, my SPO2 hovers around 94-96%. But when I take deep breaths, it jumps to 98-99%. I get that deep breathing brings in more oxygen, but why doesn't this happen when I'm breathing normally? Is there something more I should know?

due to anxiety saturation decrease, compete anxiety medication it will heal on its own
