What Causes Burning Sensation In The Muscles?
2 days ago my 6 yo daughter and I had a low grade fever. She presented with runny nose, cough, sore throat and is symptom free now,although maybe tired. I am symptom free with increased energy,no fever but have noticiable whole body muscle burning, especially in quads. I flush my body with increased daily water. I am concerned. This is distracting me from my everyday life. Any suggestions?

Hi there.
She is experiencing flu symptoms which comprises of body and muscle pain as well. This will take 7-14 days to resolve. Give her plenty of fresh citrus fruit juices as this will help built immunity against the viral infection. She should be well hydrated with plenty of water. Avoid junk food, cold drinks. She can take Paracetamol tablet 100mg once a day for pain relief after consulting with a Paeditrician ONLY.
