Are Sore Throat, Raised Temperature, Chills And Body Aches Related To Mosquito Bites?
I have bite marks on my hands and feet with raised red spots. These are different than mosqieto bites. They don t itch but are sensitive to touch. I have worked in the yard and have walked barefoot. I have a mesqite tree that is dropping peapods which I have raked up and removed by hand 4 different times. Also my hands are very sensitive to hot water. I don t know if this is related to this but I developed flulike symptoms , sore throat,raised temp,chills and body aches which have mostly subsided

Hello,
It may be related to mosquito bite.
For further assessment I would suggest you to consult with physician for detailed examination.
You may require complete hemogram, peripheral smear for malaria parasites, dengue NS 1, urine analysis after consultation.
Mean while for body ache you can take tablet acetaminophen.
Do saline or Betadine gargles twice a day.
You may require antibiotics after consultation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
