Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
I am having sore throat, fever and body pain for last two days. What to do? Should I go for Covid test or continue medicine and home remedies?
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I hope you are doing well.
It might be Covid or simple upper respiratory tract infection. In view of current pandemic, Covid 19 must be ruled out. If currently you are feeling well other than having fever and bodyaches then just isolate yourself for 14 days, take Vicks steam inhalation, good and healthy diet. Incase you start experiencing shortness of breath, chest pain, dizziness , vomiting or diarrhea immediately rush to emergency.
Good luck, stay healthy.
