Detailed Answer:
Welcome to health care magic, I share your concern and I will try to help you out in best possible way.
the symptoms you have mentioned is classical of viral fever, which is associated with high grade fever and chills and may b joint pains. since there is no specific antibiotic to treat viral fevers, the treatment will be symptomatic, hence is suggest you to take tab. dolo 650mg twice daily in the morning and night. and eat healthy as a lot of energy will be dissipated in fighting infection and you will feel very tired. You can take these tablets for a couple of days and stop it if the fever subsides.
Hope this clarifies your doubts. Revert back to me if you have follow up queries.
