Should I Worry About Redness On Face And Neck, Back Pain, Sore Throat And Fluctuating Temperature?

I ve had asore throat since tuesday with a fluctuating temperature between 36.6 and 37.4, not high but enough to make me hot and cold and giving me headaches. My back hurts and I feel like im fighting a virus. I ve been resting and sleeping as much aspossible since I was off from work the past 3 days but it doesnt seem to be getting better and now I just noticed that my face and neck are all red. Not itchy or anything, just red. Is that anything to be worried about?

Hi Welcome to Health care magic forum.
Sore throat is a bacterial infection, caused by streptococcus etc. I advise you to consult an E.N.T. surgeon, for diagnosis and treatment.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms erythromycin500mg, phenylephrine hydrochloride, levocitrizine, and paracetamol.
Take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts and
protein rich food, to support the treatment.
Wising for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
