I'm 19 and I've noticed my head feels hot in the mornings and evenings, but I don't have a fever. My temperature usually reads between 97.6 and 98.5, but I often get headaches in the evening and sometimes lose my appetite. What could be causing these symptoms?

I'm really worried about my mom who just tested positive for COVID yesterday with a ct value of 16. She's been having a dry cough and had a fever a couple of days ago. Our family doctor has prescribed some medicine, and her oxygen level has been steady at 99 throughout today. Should we stick with the current meds, or is it better to see another doctor for her COVID treatment?

continue the medicine, no need to consult a doctor
