Doubt COVID related: The main symptoms of COVID-19, per CDC, are fever or chills, cough (usually dry), shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, fatigue, muscle or body aches, headache, loss of taste or smell, sore throat, runny nose, nausea, and diarrhea. Your symptoms seem much more like a sinusitis, most likely unrelated to COVID-19. You may need an evaluation to determine your need for an antibiotic.

Infection: A secondary infection is possible. Thus, at this point a medical assessment (in-person or telemedicine) would be prudent.
