People with COVID-19 have had a wide range of symptoms reported – ranging from mild symptoms to severe illness.
The CDC’s definition of a fever is when an adult has a measured temperature of at least 100.4 °F (38 °C).However, the CDC also mentions that “fever may be considered to be present if a person has not had a temperature measurement but feels warm to the touch, or gives a history of feeling feverish.”
Considering that COVID-19 irritates lung tissue, the cough is dry and persistent. It is accompanied with shortness of breath and muscle pain.As disease progresses, the lung tissue is filled with fluid and you may feel even more short of breath as your body struggles to get enough oxygen.
A wet cough brings up phlegm from the lower respiratory tract (the lungs and lower airways, as opposed to your nose and throat) into the mouth.
A headache is a potential symptom of COVID-19. What point in the infection it typically occurs is still being determined. To date, a headache has been reportedTrusted Source both early and late in the infection phase, with a later headache possibly being associated with worsening illness.
