covid 19 test results - #19277

Last week, I started feeling unwell with flu-like symptoms, including a sore throat, mild fever, and body aches. Since I wanted to be cautious, I took a COVID-19 test, which came back negative. While this was a relief, I am still feeling weak and fatigued, and my symptoms have not fully gone away. I began wondering how accurate COVID-19 test results are and whether Ayurveda offers natural ways to strengthen my immunity and recover fully from post-viral fatigue. From what I read, COVID-19 test results can sometimes be inaccurate, especially if taken too early in the infection. I have heard of cases where people tested negative despite having clear symptoms. If my symptoms feel similar to COVID-19 but my test is negative, should I still take extra precautions? Does Ayurveda recommend specific treatments for viral infections, even if they are not confirmed to be COVID? Another issue I am facing is a lingering sense of fatigue. Even though my COVID-19 test results were negative, I am experiencing sluggishness, lack of focus, and occasional body aches. Does Ayurveda view post-viral fatigue as a sign of weakened Ojas (vital energy)? If so, what are the best Ayurvedic remedies to restore energy levels and speed up recovery? I also noticed that my sense of taste and smell seem slightly dulled, which I read could be a side effect of viral infections. Does Ayurveda offer any herbal treatments, nasal therapies, or detox methods to restore these senses naturally? Are there Ayurvedic nasal drops (Nasya) or steam inhalations that might help? Another thing I am concerned about is whether my immune system was weakened prior to this infection. I frequently get colds and minor infections. Could Ayurveda provide an explanation for why my body seems more vulnerable to illnesses? Does Ayurveda suggest a long-term immunity-boosting regimen to help prevent future infections, even when COVID-19 test results are negative? Since I want to avoid long-term dependency on medications, I would love to explore Ayurvedic alternatives. What are the best Ayurvedic practices, diet changes, and herbal remedies that support immunity and help the body recover fully after an illness, regardless of what the COVID-19 test results indicate? How can I strengthen my respiratory system and overall well-being using Ayurveda? I am looking for a holistic approach that not only helps me recover from this infection but also improves my immunity in the long run. What Ayurvedic treatments would you recommend for someone in my situation?
