What Does Headache Along With Nausea And Sore Throat Indicate?
Hi there! My daughter is 16 years old. For 2 days now she has been complaining of a headache that will not go away. She is also nauseous and is complaining of a sore throat. She says that she just doesn t feel well. It seems too early in the year to worry about the flu and she doesn t have a fever (that I have been able to measure), could it just be a virus?

Hi,
I have gone through the medical history of your daughter and understood your concerns.
The headache she is complaining of and nausea with sore throat are signs of possible viral infection.
Advise to rest more, drink plenty of fluids, take OTC pain killers for the headache.
If no improvement or if fever, should consult with her doctor as prescription meds might be needed.
Wish fast recovery.
