Proving prevents shortness of breath
For corona patients undergoing treatment in home isolation, proneing is very helpful. This is a kind of process, which is completed by lying on the stomach. By lying in this way, more oxygen reaches the lungs, and breathing improves.

Doctors around the world use this procedure when a patient has trouble breathing, and his oxygen level (SpO2) is reduced to less than 94. For this procedure, place a pillow under the neck. Then put one or two pillows under the chest (through the upper thigh) and two pillows are to be placed under the front of the leg.
