HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
It is possible that you may have a viral illness that is causing your symptoms. Viral illnesses can cause headaches, joint or muscle pain along with the nausea that you mentioned.
In most cases only symptomatic treatment is needed meaning medication to address specific symptoms eg(1) paracetamol or tylenol to treat the headaches and pain
If there is any fever or chills , this would also help reduce the temperature
(2)pepcid or peptobismol for the gastrointestinal symptoms
If there is no improvement in symptoms or worsening then you may need to see your doctor for assessment so that the likely specific infection can be identified.
I hope this helps
