Duration of symptoms...

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

You didn't mention since when are you having these symptoms.

In the current context, if your symptoms are persistent for more than 3-5 days, it is wise to get tested for COVID - rapid test as well as RT PCR.

In the meanwhile take tab dolo 650mg three times daily along with multivitamin supplements. Monitor symptoms and remain isolated.
