Definitely it seems like you slept in a wrong position as you are recovering from the numbness and about the flu, 90 % of the cases are viral and it also recovers within a week so you can take anti inflammatory drugs like tablet combiflam twice a day till you recover. nothing to worry about. Only thing to concern is when you get high grade fever go for complete blood count. Also you need to take lots of fluid these days.Take care. have a nice day!.
