Continue hydration: This may be an associated symptom of COVID 19, and I would suggest staying well hydrated. This finding resolves eventually.

Possibly: Do you have any other symptoms? Suspicion for COVID 19 is higher with at least 2 of these sx’s: temp of at least 99.6, Cough, Shortness of breath, Chills, Shivering, Muscle pain, Headache, Sore throat or new loss of taste or smell. The only way to know for sure is with COVID 19 testing.
