As explained below.

Detailed Answer:
Hello, and welcome to 'Ask A Doctor'

Thanks for posting your query.

I have gone through your query. There is no need to worry, we can wait and observe if any of your symptoms are persisting or worsening then you need to get blood tests and covid-19 test done. We can wait for another 5 days and see.

You can take:
Tab. Azithromycin 500 mg 1-0-0 for 5 days After Food,
Tab. Montek LC 10 mg 0-0-1 for 10 days After food.
Tab. Sinarest 1-0-1 for 2 days after food.
Tab. Dolo 650 S.O.S, for fever, bodyache or headache. Maximum 4 tablets/day.
Tab, Limcee once daily for 30 days After food.
Cap. Becadexamin once daily for 30 days after food.

Warm salt water gargling and mouth rinse thrice daily or after meal/drink
Steam inhalation and deep breathing exercises for 20 minutes twice daily.

I hope this helps. Please feel free to discuss further if any.
