Suggest Medication For Influenza Causing Body Pain And Fatigue

How long would a regular cold or influenza last? It started 11 days ago with allergy like symptoms except I ran a small fever for the first 6 days and had body aches. The very low energy and constantly being tired won t seem to pass. I sit down in tne morning to get ready for work as I have no energy to stand like normal. I get 9 hours of sleep yet still wake up there. Could this be something else other than a cold or allergies?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

Your symptoms seem to be related to a viral infection.

I suggest using anti-inflammatory medication for the pain such as Acetaminophen.

I also recommend drinking liquid and rest.

The symptoms will go away in a few days.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
