What Does Feeling Of Sunburn In Upper Body While Having Fever And Sinus Infection Mean?

My upper body feels as if it's sunburned. When my clothes touch my body it is not unbearable but uncomfortable. (History)--I went to my Dr. two days ago and was diagnosed with cold and sinus infection. My Dr. said that the sunburn feeling was brought on by fever and should go away soon. I have not had a fever for almost 48 hours and the sunburn feeling is still prominent. Should I be concerned that it may be something else? Thanks for your help.

Your doctor was right the sunburn feeling you were experiencing due to fever.though you are fever free bit you can still have this feeling as the infection has not left your body completely.it may take a week or two to completely recover.you need not to worry.just keep taking a lot of fluids.add yougart to the diet and you will be completely fine in no time
I hope this will be useful.
