Hi. Looking at your symptoms I feel u are having meningitis either tuberculosis or sub acute bacterial or viral. Stiff neck mostly guides towards meningitis. Antibiotics should be used based on organisms and for
a longer course. So first I suggest u to consult a doctor and get the tests done to detect organisms and also a CT scan of head and para nasal sinuses to know the exact diagnosis. And I tel u is please don't delay . Hope it helped u. Get well soon.
