In your symptoms list,neck stiffness with headache and fever is suggesting the possibility of infection in meninges the lining of our brain.It is better you consult a qualified physician who will do physical examination,blood tests like Hb%,tc,dc,esr,urine routine and CSF (cerebro spinal fluid) cell counts if required and can suggest appropriate medication.
