Cough, fever
Low grade fever with cough from past 4 days. These similar symptoms occurs every year during this couple of months.
Hi. I understand your concern s. Yes it can be common flu. But in this time it can not be neglected. Be alert isolate yourself from your family members. Take paracetamol for fever, salt water gargling. Maintain social distance, hand hygiene and always wear a mask. If it worsens or you develop breathlessness visit a nearby covid care hospital.

Hi
It maybe a seasonal flu
But you would have to quantify your fever and quality of phlegm. Coloured or non coloured?
And in times of Covid it is wise to get a chest X-ray and cBC to be confident that it is not something more sinister.
Next Steps
CBC and Chest X-ray
Till then only paracetamol to go.
