Could Headaches, Cough And Fatigue Be Symptoms Of Something More Serious Than Cold?
I've been sick with what I thought was a cold for the past 6 days and it seems to be getting worse. Symptoms include moderate, phelmy cough, stuffy nose, headaches, body aches, and extreme fatigue. I get exhausted doing the simplest thing and all I want to do is sleep. Could this be something else?

Thank you for the question,
Usually a simple cold or flu should be resolving after 6 days. You might have a chest infection which would need antibiotics. Suggest you see your doctor for this.
Kind Regards
