Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I have been sick for a day with a typical cold, with symptoms such as headaches, joint pains, drowsiness, and low energy. Is it better to consult a doctor, or could you prescribe some medication?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

I suggest you take adequate rest and take tablet Paracetamol 500mg daily. Please follow up if you have any additional related queries regarding it.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
