Headache, stiff neck

Me 47, visited Shell Sg Ramal Retail Shop on 18 or 19-March (can’t recall exactly which day) to buy a bread. Later noticed that Shell branch was closed on 21-march due a retailer confirmed with Covid19. On 26-March, I started to develop headache, no fever (i think), mild throat uncomfortable, stiff neck. I am also have gastritis. Do i need to go for further Covid19 test ?
