I have had the cold and flu virus for about 4 weeks dr said could not give me anything nearly better apart from neck pain and headache that don t want to go ,feels like I ve sat in a draught but haven t and headache everyday ,and persistent dry cough at night , why won t it go please
Cold should not last for four weeks. So this is not a cold, that is for sure. I would like that you should take two tablets of tylenol as required for the headache. You should also be seen again by your doctor to rule out other conditions that may be causing this headache and neck pain. One of the most common causes of neck pain and headache is stress or anxiety.
