Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,

Symptoms like headache, body ache, fatigue, stomach upset following a heavy drinking can suggest hangover.
If there is no associated fever(suggesting a viral cause rather), we need not worry- just have a nap, take some rest, drink enough fluids and take Acetaminophen 500mg tablets(after food) 3 times daily for 2 days. This will ease out your symptoms.

If no relief by then, we can evaluate further.

I hope this answer will help
