I've been recovering from COVID for about 7 months now, and my CT score initially was 12 right after, but it dropped to 7 a few months later. I recently checked my SpO2 while lying down with my head on a pillow, and it was around 95-96, but when I sat in a chair, it was 98. Plus, I'm able to walk about 3-4 km daily without any issues. Is there anything serious I should be concerned about here?

I recently tested positive for COVID-19 but now I'm negative. I only had mild symptoms and my oxygen saturation levels are normal. Should I still go ahead with an HRCT? I'm not sure if it's necessary. Can you help clarify this for me?

I'm really concerned about my 10-year-old son. He's really into skating and does it quite well, but he runs out of breath quickly and gets tired faster than his peers. He also seems to have breathing problems after running. What can we do to help improve his stamina and make sure he's not struggling with his breathing?

increase foods with rich in immunity and proteins
