you could possibly have a mild case of Covid. Yes I would suggest that you get tested so that in case you have it you can avoid being around anybody in the meantime to help get rid of the congestion, drink plenty of water to stay hydrated. If you have a humidifier that would be helpful. Get some good amounts of vitamin C such as orange juice, vitamin D is also good . you can talk to your doctor about how much vitamin D to take as well as possible other supplements.
But first go get tested to find out. You’re going to be OK.
