Suggest Treatment For Headache And Body Aches After High Fever

Last night I had a sudden onset of fever, 102.My body ached, felt like I had the flu and also had a pressure headache.My fever has gone down,still have the headache and body aches but here's the weird part--the saliva in my mouth tastes like I've been eating limes,it's very acidic and I haven't eaten any citrus products.

Hi welcome to the health care magic

Your symptoms suggest towards viral flu and in that abnormal taste of food in Mouth can occur

Your neck rigidity should be checked (Examine by your chin should touch chest)
Photo phobia or any other history present then provide it..

For your symptoms decongestant like phenylephrine and paracetamol combination drug can be prescribed

Steam inhalation beneficial

Salt water gargle done

Drink more water

Take one tsp ginger juice and one tsp honey and mix them and drink that will have soothing effect

Investigate with CBC also

Consult physician for examination with keeping all this in mind

Hope your concern solved
