Hello i have all of the symptoms of a common cold according to the symptoms assessment. would you recommend over the counter medication or continue drinking tea?

If you have upper respiratory tract symptoms, please have a COVID 19 screening test, even if you have been vaccinated. Discuss home test kit with your physician. Stay well hydrated, rest, monitor temperature and use nasal saline spray. Watch for signs of difficulty breathing, prolonged cough or fever.

The cold type viruses are prevalent during winter, during the current pandemic testing for COVID will make sense. Would suggest getting your doc’s input before self diagnosing and self treating.
