I have tested covid positive today and my ct value is 23. I'm feeling ok although have a little sore throat and dry cough due to that. Initially I had a severe sore throat and fever which subsided with antibiotics and dolo. I have also started with jethimedhu and rasayan churna along with mahasudarshan kadha 2-3 times a day. I do betadine gargles once a day and steam once a day. Is there anything else I should be doing or is a chest ct scan needed to evaluate the severity of my dry cough. Hope I will get better soon and without any complications.

Do gargles more often, drink warm soup, kadha, eat nimbu and healthy food and lots of liquids, I presume you are taking antibiotics, take cough syrup, take lots of rest, no stress, and if your cough increases or you feel shortness of breath then definitely go to hospital.
