The early signs of Covid-19 include a dry cough, sore throat, fever and a runny nose. Other common symptoms include a loss of smell or taste, headaches and body aches.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Serious symptoms which would require hospitalisation include pneumonia and severe hypoxemia. If you <\/span><b>test positive<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and are advised home isolation, you should keep a check on your oxygen level and even avail a Covid home care package available at hospitals.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b id=\"What-are-some-of-the-home-quarantine-mistakes-to-avoid\">What are some of the home quarantine mistakes to avoid?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While you under <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">home quarantine<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to recover from Covid-19, you will need to socially distance from other family members. Ensure that you are in a separate room and wear an <\/span><b>effective mask<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to avoid infecting others. Don\u2019t share your glasses, plates and other items with the family too.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While you are following the above <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">home quarantine rules<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, here are common myths about recovering from Covid-19 that you should avoid.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Trusting every source online<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While the internet is a great place to look for urgent information, it is important to verify the information before trusting it. Look for information from medically certified sources or your own qualified and trusted doctor to plan your recovery at home.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Using traditional medicines not backed by science<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While drinking a \u2018<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">kadha<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2019 or hot water might seem healthy, it might not actually be helping you beat Covid-19. It can cause gastrointestinal problems and burn your oesophagus. If you are inhaling steam as a treatment, it can actually harm the inner layers of your lungs.

You should focus on eating nutritious and <\/span><b>hydrating foods<\/b> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">like fruits and vegetables. Ensure that you continue your regular food intake even if you face a loss of appetite.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Doing extreme yoga and breathing exercises<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The other practice that some patients undertake is heavy breathing exercises and yoga.
