Hello,

You are suffering from viral rhinopharyngitis with myalgia. Take rest, drink plenty of liquid. Use capsule Tamiflu twice a day for five days. Use tablet paracetamol thrice a day for five days. If symptoms not improved, please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.


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