hi
these body pains / myalgia can be the later manifestations or side effects of antibiotics, bronchodilators.
or post viral fever induced generalised weakness
it usually takes 3 to 4 weeks to recover, as it is self limiting.
keep yourself hydrated properly, and balance the electrolyte levels.
take multivitamin or simple b-complex tablets & nutritious diet to keep yourself strong.
all the best,take care
