Hi well come to HCM.
Headache and backach are usually associated with most of fever.Only four days are
gone and it being low grade you can wait for another 2 to 3 days and continue to
take paractamol as when needed at the interval of 6 to 8 hrs. If viral it should go
on its own, as it is self limiting condition. If does not subside consult your Doctor
and if suggested by your doctor get done lab reports. Thanks

hi,
u are having viral fever, so nothing to worry... as of now.
but, if u get yellow colour nasal discharge / yellow sputum, then u need to start on antibiotics, as per any GP recommendation.
as of now u can take Tab. crocin-plus = 500 mg [BD / TID], steam inhalation.. salt gargling 2-3 times /day.
