Body temperature in covid
Is body temperature of 99.2/.3 considered fever in covid?
I was covid positive and recently recovered, have negative report. Today is day 17 since I first had symptoms. I didn't have anu fever previously, only loss of taste and smell.
Last few days, my body temp fluctuates between 97, 98 and sometimes 99. I have a lot of weakness and still having multivitamins as prescribed by doc. (Have to continue till 1 month)
Am I having fever? What should be the next course of action?

Hello dear. I know whenever the word Covid comes into picture we panic. Dont worry. Your body will have enough antibodies. Next step would be get an RTPCR done with CBC and a chest XRAY. Hydrate yourself well.

In covid patients the fever is more than 101 - 102, which does not come down, if you have low fever , then you are already recovering from covid , just increase ur water intake and you will be fine, also, don’t forget to take ur vitamins
