Viral infection: Your symptoms are consistent with a viral infection and at this time you have to think in covid 19. You should be tested for the disease and have to quarantine to avoid infecting others. If your symptoms are mild, treat with Tylenol, Motrin or other cold medicines and monitor your evolution. Stay active so you can monitor your breathing and if symptoms progress, please check with your doctor.
