Hi,
Yes, it can be viral illness but lower respiratory tract infection or atypical pneumonia should be ruled out with baseline blood work up as well as with chest X-ray and inflammatory markers. Possibility for secondary bacterial infections should be ruled out as it may need antibiotics in such cases. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
