Hi, thank you for trusting Healthcare Magic.

The symptoms that you feel may be caused by a influenza virus infection. It is one of the most common diseases and can be experienced by anyone. Some of the symptoms that can occur in this disease include:
1. Fever
2. Cough
3. Aches that occur in the body
4. Headache
5. Tired and feel exhausted
6. Sore throat
7. Sneezing, nasal congestion, or runny nose
8. Loss of appetite

These symptoms can occur and become more severe for 2-4 days before it will eventually heal by itself. However, do not underestimate this disease.

You should still check yourself to the Doctor especially if:
1. The presence of immune diseases that make the infection becomes more dangerous and difficult to recover
2. Susceptible to complications from Flu, such as Pregnant Women, elderly, Chronic Diseases, etc.
3. Flu symptoms that you experience do not get better within 7 days, accompanied by nausea, vomiting, high fever, seizures, and there is a decrease in consciousness.

Examinations that can be done by the doctor include blood and rontgent photos if indicated the presence of respiratory tract infection.

For the treatment of this disease, generally can heal by itself. But if you feel painful, you can take Acetaminophen or Ibuprofen to reduce fever and reduce pain that you feel.

Hope you get better soon.

Take care.
