Brief Answer:
Viral fever

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

Based on the symptoms you mention, I believe your husband is suffering from viral fever.

Most of the viral fevers remain symptomatic for a minimum of a week or 10 days after which they undergo resolution. No antibiotic works against viral infections. All we can do is symptomatic management.

I would recommend Tab Sumocold instead of Tab sumo. One tab twice daily after food for three days. If the headache is severe then you can advice him to take Tab Saridon, not more than two per day.

Weakness may persist for a week or two and gradually disappear. I would ask your husband to do his daily routine work once the fever is completely down, this will help him get rid of the weakness sooner.

Hope, I answered your query.

Wish you good health.
