Neurologist,  's  Response
Hi,
Based on your symptoms of headache, neck pain ,fever ,joint pain and reddish spots in arm,need to consider viral exanthematous fever with associated headaches and neck pains
You need to be clinically evaluated by neurologist/Family physician for same
You require complete blood count with ESR,blood sugar, ASO titre, CRP and platelet count to be checked.Treatment planned as per clinical and lab findings.
