Suggest Treatment For Tiredness And Pain All Over The Body

Over a week ago I started to feel ill. I first noticed that I was extremely tired for no reason at all. I think noticed that I had some slight pain all over my body. The next day I started to notice that I was spiking a slight fever. I maintained these symptoms for about 5 days and then I started noticing some small red spots all over my body. The spots did not itch or hurt and only were present for one day. The day following the spots I started to cough uncontrollably and sneeze in clusters of about 8 sneezes. That too only lasted one day. Now my abdomen is extremely sore but all other symptoms have vanished with the exception of black stools. Not sure if I should see a doctor or not.

Hello,

Black stools are a potential sign of bleeding in your stomach or bowel. It is important to see your doctor and have tests done to identify the cause of the black stools. Sometimes, a bleeding ulcer due to pain killers can be the case and quick proper treatment is needed.

I hope this answers your query.
I remain at your disposal in case further medical assistance is needed.
