What Causes Cough Along With Fever And Severe Headaches?
I'm 31 year old female. Have had a strong productive cough for a week, periodic temp up to 100. My 7 year old boy has similar symptoms. But now I have a severe headache in right temple and raised red patches (not spots) on abdomen. Last week had similar welts on neck. I've stayed home in bed. I have very sensitive skin to too much sun, but I haven't been out.

Hi,
Your symptoms suggestive of upper respiratory tract infection. Mostly it seems to be viral infection. Symptomatic management done for that. For cough you can be prescribed Ambroxol containing syrup. Take 1 tsp turmeric powder with milk daily.
Drink more water that help in soothing and lysing mucus. If no improvement than CBC, chest X-ray and spirometry like investigation planned according to the need.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
