Question : I woke up yesterday with the chills and my throat on fire! I had some drainage, but today I am coughing and I have a rash all over! I have not eaten anything unusual or wash my clothes in anything different! What could this be? I have also been running a low grade fever!

Can you kindly upload an image for review?

Detailed Answer:
HI,

Kindly upload an image of this rash for review. While your symptoms are very suggestive of a possible viral infection I will like to follow through and make sure it is for real. For now, tylenol alone for pain and fever is okay. Also, drink much fluids and increase fruits intake to help the body fight the infection and recover faster.

I wish you well.
