It could be Covid. Covid-19: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html Contact your doctor/local hospital, by phone for evaluation and testing in your area. Wear a mask, stay away from others, practice hand hygiene. If you develop breathing difficulty, go to the nearest hospital, immediately. Wish you good health.

Agree with Dr. Singh. Would get tested. Make sure to quarantine. Rest, hydration, acetaminophen, decongestant, cough med & nasal saline irrigation may help symptoms. If NSAIDS are used consider Naprosyn. Consider use of Vitamins C, D, B complex & zinc. Get emergency care for difficulty breathing, blue lips or face, significant & persistent chest pain or new-onset of confusion.
