Question: What do I have!? What should I do!? BEST ANSWER WILL BE CHOSEN!!?
Ok so I have had this cold for around 4 days now!. I have been congested and had a fever where the temperature ranged from 101 degrees to 100 to 99 degrees, but that's not in order!. It just kind of gets higher at certain points!. When should I go into the doctor!? I will list all of my symptoms!. Im kind of nervous that this thing hasn't gone away!. I think its slowly but surely starting to heal, but I haven't seen that much of a difference!.

Here are my symptoms:
1!. Once in a while I get a head ache
2!. Cough
3!. mild to moderate fever
4!.congestion
5!.sore throat
6!.Chills

What should I do and what do you think I have!?!?!? THANKS SO MUCH AND ANY ANSWERS ARE APPRECIATED! :DWww@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
You've got the flu!. I'm sorry but it's not going away anytime soon!. You should see your doctor as he/she is the only one who knows your medical history!. But in the meantime go to the drugstore or better yet have someone else go, and get some Robituusssin DM, Afrin nasal spray and Cepacol lozenges!. If you don't have aspirin or tylenol around the house pick some of that up too!. Take a nice long hot bath or shower, breathing in the steam!. Make yourself some hot chocolate and go to bed!. Take the medicines, and rest!. Rest is the most important thing!. Let your immune system do it's job!.
When you see the doctor let him/her decide what to do next!.
Remember, rest!.

It is kind of hard to answer your question without some more details, and of course you should see a doctor for a TRUE diagnosis, but it could be bronchitis!.

Are you coughing up greenish looking stuff at all!?!? Is it a dry cough!? If it is greenish looking then I would start to think even more about bronchitis!.
Do you feel tired all the time!? That could also be another sign!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

don't confuse a fever with an elevated temp -a fever is 102!.9 and above!. treat your symptoms, wash your hands well, and see your doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

If it has gone on for 4 days you should probably head to the doctor!. You might have strep thoat or another bacterial infection (which can caues fever) that needs an antibiotic to heal quickly!.

Whether you go to the doc or not, make sure to have plenty of fluids (preferably warm fluids during a fever) and sleep at least 9 hours a night until it passes!.
Also, have plenty of vitamin c and nutrition as they will help boost your immunity to get rid of your cold!.
Don't take too many anti-fever meds as fevers are actually good because they help rid your body of infection!. But if it goes over 103, then you definately need to go to the doc!.!.!.b'cus then it is an emergency!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
