at 6 pm I started getting very achey in my arms and felt a fever coming on...it was 105 degrees at he time, but I couldnot get warm. Went to bed with lots of coversthen the back of my knee started hurting,could hardly get up and walk. This went on until 9 pm, still a fever...tried to go to bed but my leg hurts so bad can not sleep or get in comfortable position. My arm still aches...right....and leg hurts if I move it...hardly can bend it. Fever seems better.

Hello,
Such a high fever generally results in lot of evaporation of water resulting in dehydration and loss of electrolytes which results in aches in body.
You must replenish your electrolytes and water by taking plenty of water,ORS and coconut water.
Take some paracetamol for fever and can be taken every 4-6 hours.
Do sponging with tap water.
If it is a viral fever,it should go way in 72-96 hours.
Persistence of fever beyond 4 days would necessitate required investigations for diagnosis of cause and appropriate treatment.
Thanks

Hi,
It seems that you are having high fever giving rise to generalized body ache, headache and pain while walking.
It might be viral infection.
Take tablet paracetamol for fever and body ache.
Take plenty of water.
Take light diet.
Within a day or two you will be alright, if fever continued then consult your doctor and get investigated.
Ok and take care.
