Hi.. Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC.. I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns.. As per your complain it seems that the symptoms of cold, cough, headache and sensitivity of skin along with chills can be due to severe upper respiratory tract infection or can be due to Influenza or flu.. As both are Viral infection the symptoms will resolve once the virus completes its cycle in human body.. You can start taking symptomatic treatment to relieve the symptoms.. You can take anti-inflammatory painkillers like Ibuprofen along with Acetaminophen, take anti allergics like Levocetrizine or Benadryl, take cough suppressant containing Dextromethorphan and Guaifenesin.. You can also do steam inhalation, do warm saline gargles and avoid spicy and chilled foods.. Drink plenty of warm water and other warm fluids.. Take sufficient rest.. Chew Vitamin C pellet and suck throat lozenges.. In case if you do not improve in a week consult an Otolaryngologist and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and investigations like Blood tests, chest x Ray can be done to rule out the exact cause of the symptoms and treat you accordingly.. Hope this information helps.. Thanks and regards. Dr.Honey Nandwani Arora.
