Asking for Brother, Male, 22 years old, Karachi
My brother has covid. He is 22. His saturation keeps dropping to 79 and then goes back up till 100. It gets stable for a few secs and then again the same pattern specially at night. All through the day it remains between 97-99. Pulse rate either remains low (55 above) or normal mostly. It's his 7th day. Initial symptoms were extreme body pain, cough, vomit, headache, sore throat and fever. Current complain is extreme body pain that is not even subsiding after taking pain killers. And he has difficulty swallowing. What is the reason of such a major fluctuation in saturation? What can I give instantly to relief his body pain? Should we switch therapy to IV?
it's better to switch the therapy to IV...give him oxygen inhalation to avoid sudden droppings of saturation.....better to admit the patient in hospital for few days
if Saturation os that low(79) apko wait nhi karna chahye for IV...
plz share xray chest and rest of investigation u have done
