Hi Dear ,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have constant pressure in head along with fatigue which is due to allergic reaction/ upper respiratory tract infection. Apart from this as you having fatigue which is due to myalgia and arthralgia. The symptoms can also occur due to viral infection . I would suggest you to consult general practitioner for proper examination as infection has already spread. You should get throat swab test , viral culture test , complete blood profile to find out extent of infection. You should start with antibiotic such as augmentin along with decongestants and anti inflammatory such as Levocetrizine . For now do warm saline gargles. Take steam inhalation. Take proper rest , keep yourself hydrate. Maintain hygiene. Take diet rich in multivitamins.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
