What Could Sore Throat, Headaches, Body Aches And Pain Around Kidneys Indicate?
For 3 days days now I have been getting progressively worse. It started with one side of my throat really sore, then the headches began, followed by lower back pain around the kidney area. Most of my body now aches. It is keeping me awake during the night, sometimes I am really hot and sometimes I am really cold.
