I've had covid i'm on day 11 i'm otherwise fit and healthy and not overweight, my oxygen level is normal but i feel like i'm heavy breathing like it's not natural. if i try to breath through my nose it's difficult i have to open my mouth?

Nasal saline rinses may relieve congestion. It may take a few weeks to feel back to your usual state. If you are short of breath, an imaging study is recommended. Monitor temperature and breathing. Please follow up with your physician.
