If you have confirmed Covid, 85% of patients recover without symptoms by 4 weeks. 15% go on to develop long covid, with fatigue, mild cough or shortness of breath, and some aching. That can last months at least.

Every individual take different time to feel better, it will depend on your immune status.
It can drag on for 2/3 weeks. Keep drinking plenty of fluids water, non calorie beverages and try to get out and walk in tbe outdoors. Tylenol or if permitted ibuprofen may help w the HA.
Its too late in covid course for paxlovid.
