I had headache, fever (not very high), bitter taste, loss of appetite, nausea.
I took a paracetamol tablet.
Headache and fever are gone BUT bitter taste in mouth, loss in appetite and nausea still persists even after 2 days.

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain it seems you have Viral infection leading to fever, nausea, bitter taste in mouth and appetite loss..
It takes almost a week for the symptoms to resolve completely so you need not to worry..
You should take another Paracetamol tablet if there is fever..
Drink plenty of water, you can also sucknon tart candies, lemon drops and Vitamin C lozenges for improvement of taste..
Take ample of rest.
For nausea if it is severe you can take Domperidone..
Take small meals to improve digestive system..
Gradually your symptoms will improve..
In case of no improvement in a week consult a General Physician and get evaluated..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
