Do Body Ache, Fever And Fatigue Need Medical Attention?
I have began the following symptoms 5 days ago; minor body aches, low grade temp, extreme fatigue, loss of appetite. The fever has subsided but have also developed redness and skin irritation on my face, neck and hands and inside my mouth. I returned one week ago from a weeklong trip to Cuba. Should I seek med attention or assume it is a virus? My health is excellent.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Viral infection is the most common reason for these symptoms. You can consider monitoring them for now unless they increase in severity or do not appear to improve.
Fluids and rest along with acetaminophen (paracetamol or tylenol), would help.
I hope this helps
