Covid positive
Hi Dr, I started having fever ranging from 99 to 101 from past 5days so I got my covid test and it was positive on the same day my symptoms started. So I have started the medicine from day one of the symptom. But today it has been my 5th day and the temperature is not coming down below 98 yet. I have a heavy head and joint pain nothing more than that as of now. Just feel like lying down all the time. I am taking steam and gaugle 2times a day. Now everyone at my home are positive we are around 5 and I have a 3month old baby. My wife is tested positive as well but she is feeding the baby. We are scared of the baby first and difficult to isolate ourselves. Please suggest?
