Likely to be due to viral infection

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to Healthcare-Magic
Greetings of the day

Dear Ms

Going by description of symptoms it is likely to be viral fever especially so in view of generalised ache. I hope there are no respiratory or urinary symptoms.

I would suggest you the following

1. Antipyretics like Paracetamol will be helpful for ache and fever

2. Ensure good intake of water especially Oral rehydration solution to prevent dehydration from diarrhoea

3. Oral Probiotics will be helpful

4. Adequate rest

5. Ensure good intake of nutritional food

Do get back to me if you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you

Take Care

Best Regards
Dr Shobha Deepak
