Mgt: Exposure level, type of virus as well as host immunity can be reflected in infection pattern. If you have concerns, a virtual appointment and potential lab evaluation may be ordered during the appointment. In the meantime, stay well hydrated, use good hand washing and receive a flu vaccination unless otherwise indicated.

Allergies ?: It may not be infection. Could be allergies - maybe allergic rhinitis. Talk to your doctor.
