My dad was diagnosed with covid 4 days ago and he is on oxygen support from the past 3 days. His oxygen saturation level was 88 when he was diagnosed .after 3 days it was 97 without oxygen support. He was off the oxygen support on 4th day and by the end of the day it fell down to 88-90 again. Feeling very tensed and keeping hope. Age 66 with diabetes.  Does it take few days to recover?

Don't be tensed bhayya, it usually takes around 2-3 weeks, could see improvement after one week... Things will be ok your father will recover good luck and prayers for his speedy recovery.

Its takes 7-10 days to completely recover from nose congestion, throat, to get back taste buds on tongue and sense of smell in any flu fever. 

All that you need to make sure is he get fresh air. Fresh air, fresh air, i'm repeating. keep windows open where he spends most of the time, and take him out for few mins every few hrs when its not too cold or windy. Give orange juice, frequent mild warm water intake. . . "absolutely no rice", let him eat no rice food like wheat chapati or jowar roti , ragi etc., he'll be ok.

My mom got severely sick with continuous sneezes, mild cough, high fever and body pain couple of weeks back, it was covid negative, tested two times. had breathing issues for the first 3 days, she had steam inhalation at home itself and started breathing better in 2 days, but it took 1 week to come out of feverish feeling, and complete recovery of taste, appetite and sore throat took like 10th day approx.  Even after 10 days recovery she was feeling a bit tired, now she is doing ok after more than 2 weeks.

Make sure he get vitamin-c fruits like orange/battai/mosambi daily.

Also get his vitamin-d level checked. 100% of the serious covid cases are due to low vit-D levels like less than 8 ng/ml, some people even have less than 5 nl/ml level of Vit-D.
