I've been hearing mixed things about steaming and its effectiveness for people affected by corona. Some sources like blogs and newspapers say it doesn't help at all, while debates on news channels and YouTube videos also suggest it's not beneficial. I'm really confused and concerned. Could you shed some light on whether steaming is actually useful for someone dealing with corona?

I've been checking my oxygen levels, and they always seem to hover around 94. That seems low compared to what I've read is normal, but I don't have any breathing issues. Just to give you a bit of background, I had a primary complex when I was 10, and a couple of years ago my pulmonary function test showed mild restriction. I don't feel asthmatic or anything, and I do breathing exercises like anulom vilom every day. My pulse rate is around 60, and I'm physically active, playing all kinds of sports without any problems. I'm a 22-year-old male and am just curious if I should be worried about the oxygen levels or if they might be connected to my past medical history. What do you think?

I'm a bit concerned about a recent x-ray I had for a job-related issue. The report mentioned something about bronchovascular markings in my lungs. I'm wondering if it would help to take an antibiotic course to improve my condition. I have a small amount of breathing trouble, but it gets much worse whenever I catch a cold. Could you give me some advice on what I could do to prevent lung infections?
Bronchovascular markings on an X-ray indicate inflammation or congestion, but antibiotics are only effective against bacterial infections; to prevent lung infections and manage symptoms, consider consulting your pulmonologist
