How To Treat Sore Throat,fever, Mild Cough And Loss Of Appetite?

Hi. About a month ago I got sick. Sore throat, fever. The usual things people get when they get sick. Couple of weeks after that as I felt better my body was dragging at work and felt depressed and had a sore throat. My body felt mildly feverish and went away with over the counter pills but then the mild fever came back after the effects of the pills went away. Then had a lack of appetite but could still eat. Urine a bit darker than usual. Also have a mild cough. Ontop of that. About a month ago I caught pubic lice. Took care of it already.

Viral and bacterial flu like illnessess are characterized by fever,sore throat,fatigue,lack of taste,loss of apetite.Most of these symptoms are self limited. Taking over the counter drugs is associated with sedation,gastric upset,mood changes.Hydrate yourself with plenty of water,fruit juices,do salt water gargles,maintain a positive outlook and if symptoms are too much i would advice you to get blood tests done.
