If you get cold,there is no need to take antibiotics for that. It will resolve it’s own. For fever u can take DOLO 650 2 times a days.

Yes should consider taking antibiotics. Any history of throat pain/irritation/running nose/headache/lethargy/weakness?? Need more detail history for proper evaluation and medication. If fever persist even after 3 days of taking medication, consider getting RTPCR done
Next Steps
Consult me on practo for further guidance
