hi. I m experiencing body aches/pains all over, mostly in my legs. chills, diarrhea, naseau and vomitting. I ve lost my appetite. can you tell me what could be some possibilities of illness i may have. and I m going to the ER shortly, is that recommended?
Understanding your concern. As per your query you are having symptoms of episodes of body aches, chills, diarrhea and vomiting which seems to be gastroenteritis such as viral fever or flu. It is due to disturbed and poor metabolism of body. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to do warm saline gargles. Drink plenty of fluids, have proper rest. Your symptoms will resolve in 3-4 days. If symptoms keeps on persisting visit general physician once and get it examined and start treatment after proper examination and prescription. Go for blood tests such as W.B.C count as well as increased count will indicate infection in body. Take analgesic medications and take light diet. You should take anti-inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen to prevent fever and body-ache.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
