What Causes Symptoms Of Fever, Muscle And Joint Ache And Severe Cough?
Hi dr I m a 19 year old male and recently I ve been feeling hot on the outside and cold on the inside especially at night , also I seem to be aching a lot in muscles, joints and head. I m currently doing my uni exams which I thought May be contributing stress, but I have also just got over septic tonsillitis. Also I have a very serious cough up to the point where I feel sick Thanks Adam
Hi. You might have the flu or some variant of it. Stress can be a factor or maybe somebody infected you. Take some paracetamol/acetaminophen for the fever and joint pain. Take lots of water. If you can have a CBC with platelers drawn that would be good. Look out for rashes over your body too. If you can seek a doctors consult it would be better especially if no improvement after 2 to 3 days. Also beef up on the vitamin C and B complex.
