What could be the reason for increased heart rate, cough, COPD, and fatigue?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Thank you for your query.

I understand your concern.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

You have symptoms of upper respiratory tract infection and viral pharyngitis. Fatigueness is one of the common symptoms of a viral cold. Do you have a fever? Are you taking any medications? What is the present pulse rate?

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

At present resting pulse rate is completely normal. Fatigueness, sore throat, sneezing, running nose, cough, headache, and mild fever are the common symptoms of a viral cold and any symptoms can present predominantly. I suggest you to follow a few things mentioned below.

1. Take the tablet Paracetamol three times daily.
2. Maintain adequate hydration as it is very vital to avoid fatigue.
3. Do a lukewarm water gargle with a pinch of salt in it to soothe a sore throat.
4. Wear a mask while breastfeeding and use a clean cloth in case you cough or sneeze.
5. Take adequate rest.

I hope this has helped you. Thank you.

Fatigue can be explained due to viral cold. On lying heart rate is low and it increases on standing and walking but this much variation does not occur. The viral illness causes an increase in pulse rate due to increasing the temperature which may or may not manifest as fever. You can wait a day or two and please follow the above suggestion and try to maintain adequate energy drinks, a soft diet, water, and fruit juices which would help to normalize your present problem.

Sorry to hear that your daughter tested positive for the flu. Do not worry she would be alright. I hope flu medication has already been started. You should also test yourself.

Is there any mucus discharge and what is the color of the mucus?

Hello,

The color of the mucus is normal and you can take any over-the-counter cough syrup medication of 10 ml three times a day for 3 to 5 days. Maintain adequate hydration, bed rest, proper nasal care and take flu medications if you suspect positive for flu under the guidance of the doctor.

I hope this has helped you. Thank you.
