Quarantines last for the duration of the upper limit of the incubation period of the virus, which is 14 days in this case. However, isolation lasts until the patients is completely free from the virus. Hence, it is recommended to take a test and if the result is negative then only come out of the quarantine process.

Dr. Hema Suggests...

Take a PHENYTOIN LEVEL - DILANTIN Test or Take a PROTEIN TOTAL (PROTEIN, ALBUMIN, GLOBULIN, A/G) Test

Does Covid 19 stay in clothes?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I am having rashes on my skin, mainly on the neck, thighs, and underarms. I do not have fever, cold, cough, or any other symptom of COVID. Can skin rashes be the only symptom, and should I test for COVID? I already had COVID 6 months ago. It was mild, and I was isolated at home. Please let me know if you have an answer to the above query. Thanks in advance.

Answered by Apollo Doctors

My report came negative after 14 days of isolation. I would like to know if any precautions need to be taken and for how long, as I have a 3 year old son. Also, my mother in law and father in law are at home. It has been a total of 17 days now. Is any medication required post COVID? When will smell or taste resume? I had a mild infection with no fever or cold before testing. I am also experiencing leg pain, dryness in throat and nose, and weakness post COVID. Am I still infectious? Blood tests including D dimer were fine and oxygen level is 96+. Please suggest?
