What Causes Chills, Body Pain, Terrible Headache And Burning Urination With Discharge?

Hi. My name is Ross. I am a 47 year old male. I have what I think to be the flu this week: Chills, Hot, achy, terrible headache, but a couple of days in I started having burning urination with some visible discharge which has lessened and is now a little itchy but doesn t burn. I feel my fever has broken, but still very tired. Thanks.

You need to be checked for urinary tract infection and sexually transmitted disease. A variety of infections can have a general onset with chills, fever, headaches, and body aches, and then symptoms specific to a certain body area develop soon afterwards. Burning urination particularly with a discharge suggests the possibility of a urinary infection or an STD. If it turns out to be an STD, you also what to be checked for other STDs, such as syphilis and HIV, as you can acquire more than one at the same time. The flu-like symptoms you had initially could also be caused by hepatitis, the flu, other viral infections etc. Hope this helps.
