Having Numbness In The Fingers With Fever And Flu Like Symptoms. Is There Anything Serious?

Hi Stephen My daughter has had flu-like symptoms for a few days, a little bit sniffly but mostly just aches. No coughing. This evening she advised she felt a numbness in a couple of her fingers which has concerned me somewhat. Her temp is also in and around 38 degrees centigrade. I hope you can give me some advice. Mark.

hi,
fever, bodyache, weakness, numbness in limb is a part of viral fever(flu like illness symptoms)
so, NO NEED TO WORRY, if she is on treatment for her symptoms.

but if she is not on treatment then consult any general doctor near to you or consult physician for physical examination and treatment.
