What Causes Body Aching With Sore Skin And Throat, Fever And Mucus?

Hi.....I started out with an achy body, sore to touch skin, very tired. Then it turned into sore throat, high fever, coughing with mucus, loss of appetite and then developed loss of taste and smell. I can taste the first bite and then nothing.....as for smell only a small amount and then it has to be very strong. This has been just about 3 weeks now and I am very concerned I won t get it back. Not sure if it was H1N1 or just a very bad flu????? Hope someone can help.

Hello,

You may be suffering from acute viral pharyngitis with myalgia. Use tablet paracetamol thrice a day for five days. Use salt water gargling thrice a day for five days. Use water vapour inhalation thrice a day for five days. Drink plenty of liquids and take rest. If your symptoms not improved please consult with your physician he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
