That's not a typical symptoms if covid. It is very normal and you don't need to worry much. Just take a panyoprazole and some steam inhalation. Drink plenty of water, don't let ypur throat dry. Betadiene gargles can be tried as well. You can take plain paracetamol if ypu have associated body pain or feverish feeling. Keep tracking for fever, if you do have fever, then continue antibiotics.
