What Causes Burning Throat,fatigue,coughing And Headache?

hi im a 27 yr old female and i caught something about 6 days ago. My symptoms are: coughing, swallowing a lot, fatigue, very sore, salty, scratchy and burning throat, the other day i had cold chills...haven t had fever at all though. all my muscles were sore, especially in the shoulder, neck and base of skull area. i had difficulty turning my head and one time my jaws felt really sore when opening my mouth. i also had headaches and my ears would block on and off throughout the days and my skin felt bruised everywhere when touched. These symptoms feel worse when going to bed and when i wake from bed. I would just like to know if this is something you think i should take more seriously. Nothing worse than having to wait hours at a clinic, only to be sent home with nothing.. thank you!

Hello,

As per your history, it may be due to sore throat.

For that you can do saline or Betadine gargles. Take steam inhalation.

For headache you can take tablet acetaminophen and cough syrup containing ambroxol for cough.

In case of fever, you may require antibiotics with complete hemogram, chest X Ray after consultation. Keep your self hydrated

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

Regards,
