Hi, I had gone through your query and want to say you thanks for your patience despite having such symptoms. I think you need not be worried too much now. I see similar cases in my clinic. In the first meeting, I give symptomatic treatment thinking of viral infection and ask them to follow up after 2 days if they are not improving. Since you are giving history of fever for 1 day, I would advise you to observe for another 2 days. During this time you may take:>Antihistamine like cetirizine>Paracetamol(acetaminophen) tablet if temperature rises>Throat soothing agent you find breathless, wheeze,profuse foul smelling sputum etc., then please go to your local doctor. Hope this answers your query. Take care and get well soon.
