You should be tested for Covid and Flu. Stay hydrated.
Go get checked for flu, covid, and strep. Strep is a bacterial infection that requires antibiotics. With your history of asthma and complaints of trouble breathing, I’d be sure your lung sounds are ok. If you’re wheezing, you’ll need steroids and inhalers. Drink small amounts of fluids frequently, even popsicles count as fluid, so you don’t become dehydrated.
