I've been recovering from COVID-19 for about 20 days now, and I've noticed some lingering symptoms like a low-grade fever for the past couple of days, body aches, and a stuffy nose. I'm concerned about these minor issues and I'm wondering what kind of medication or steps I should take to feel better. Any advice?

I've been dealing with this viral fever for about 4 days now, and I've even switched doctors, but I'm still not feeling better. I'm starting to get anxious about this. Do you have any idea how much longer it might take before I start feeling normal again?

I'm having a tough time with a persistent cough for several days now. When I consulted the doctor, they prescribed me some medicines: Zinox 200mg, Telekast, and a cough syrup. My issue is that the Zinox 200mg tablet is really expensive. Could you suggest any alternative medicine that's similar to Zinox 200mg? I'm looking for something more affordable.
