Chest pain, runny nose, a bit short breath
I’m a woman, 22 years old. I have sore throat for 3 days from 20 march, with a bit cough and runny nose. On 21 march had a slight fever but took paracetamol and it’s down. Still doesn’t has much chest pain. However, my chest pain start a bit more severe , start on 26 March, it hurts in the middle , and somehow it is moved to the right and then to the left. It last long for about 5-10 minutes, however somehow it last longer than that, it feels like the chest is tightening and when take breath it feels a bit hurt. I just being hospitalised before for 5 days (24/2 to 29/2) to check about my heart condition(check by cardiac doctor) and the result come out fine. I still have the documents. I don’t remember getting contact with any positive covid-19 patient. Do I need to make check up to doctor again regarding this?
