Dry Cough : Possible Coronoa??

2020-06-18 21:07:41
Hi Dr I came to my hometown from Chennai before 11 days and I have been self isolating in my home since then. Before coming here i have a very lil cough on my last day in Chennai. Later when I reached my hometown the cough seems to get better but in reality it is still there. Comparitively, it is lil higher comparing to the time when I was in Chennai. And also I feel like my nose gets little stuffy. With all this symptoms, I'm very much afraid now about getting coronoa. Can u pls advise me wat I want to do now?
