Are Headaches, Body Pain, Fever And Dizziness Symptoms Of Vertigo?
I went to a clinic for headaches, body aches, fever, and dizziness. I told the nurse practitioner that my sinuses were draining down the back of my throat and I was exhausted with nausea and some vomiting. She diagnosed me with Vertigo. Is this a correct diagnosis?

Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of headaches, body pain, fever and dizziness symptoms of vertigo . The symptoms you mention in query are pointing toward a condition like viral . It could also occur due to sinusitis or ear infection . I would suggest you to
1) Take anti-inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen to prevent fever and body-ache.
2) Drink plenty of fluids, have proper rest.
3) Do warm saline gargles.
4) Take analgesic such as Flexon and take light diet.
Your symptoms will resolve in 3-4 days. If symptoms keeps on persisting visit general physician once and get it examined and start treatment after proper examination and prescription. Go for blood tests as well to find out exact pathology. Doctor may also refer you to ENT specialist .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
