How Can fever, Cough And Muscle Soreness Be Treated?

My husband is experiencing a fever, but he says he feels cold. He also has muscle soreness. This all came on In the space of 5 minutes. He has been drinking during the day, but isn t drunk. We also had a BBQ approximately 6 hours ago. Can food poisoning symptoms come on this fast? Or what else could it be?

Hello,

I think your husband could have just a flu situation. Usually, the symptoms of food poisoning are nausea, fever, vomiting and diarrhoea.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
