Throat burning with slight elevated temp
Hello doctor,
I have been suffering from cold from yesterday morning. I have one nose totally stuffed and sometimes, the mucus is yellow when i clear my nose. I have throat burning and tonsils are slightly swelled. From today morning, I have slightly elevated temperature.
Actually, I was outside for 4 days and suspecting these symptoms of Covid. So, I am currently in my room. Could you please which medicines should i take for fast recovery ? I was thinking of taking Amoxyclav 625mg and paracetamol for this. As of now, I have only taken montair-lc yesterday. Please suggest some medicines.
Oxygen level :96-98 and pulse rate around 120-130bpm. I have attached my throat tonsil pic.
Thank you.

Get an RT-PCR done, meanwhile gargle with betadine 1tsf diluted in half glass of water three times a day, suck on tablet pirox dt when there is pain, tablet lorfast am bed time. Nasivion-s nasal drops 2 drops in each nostril 5 times a day.
Cannot prescribe antibiotics without a consultation, as misprescription and misuse/overuse of antibiotics without an indication is leading to lot of antibiotic resistance which will be a very dangerous situation for our country as well as the whole world even more dangerous than Corona
