Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I am an 18-year-old 155 pounds 5 feet 5 inches female who has a fever of 101 degrees, chills, chest pain, congestion, coughing, and rashes spreading to every part of my body. Please advise.
Thank you.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com. B
By the symptoms you have stated, you probably have a viral infection. Take bed rest, plenty of oral fluids, and symptomatic treatment (Paracetamol or antitussives, decongestants, analgesics, moisturizer cream, etc.) according to your local availability. If not decrease with these measures or if any serious problem arises, you can immediately consult a nearby health center for further treatment.
I hope that you get your answer.
Please let me know if you need any help.
Thank you.
Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
