should i go to the doctors?!


Question: Should i go to the doctors?
Well since Sunday...its now Wednesday I had a sore throat and then it turned into a stuffy nose, headach, coughing,hot/cold flashes, shaky and weak. I stayed home from school today cause of it. Should I tell my mom to make a doctors appointment? I'm 16 yr old female.

What could be wrong?

Answers:

Sounds like a viral infection with secondary bacterial and upper respiratory infection. Yes, you should see a doctor to rule out that it is not something more serious, to get antibiotics to help with secondary infection and cough medication to suppress cough and help with aches and pains a bit (make you feel a little better while your immune system is working).

When your immune system is attacked severely.. ie: The flu -- then it is not uncommon to become weak (and hence shaky) -- along with your other symptoms. Keep up the fluids, and get alot of rest (both sleep and just lying down taking it easy) in the mean time.

Feel better,



Personally I think you should step up a doctor appointment because they will give you medicnie to treat you stuffy nose, headache, coughing, hot flashes, shaky and weak...Or they can find out what cold you have and make you feel better :)

I hope you get better :)



YES... YOU MIGHT DIE!!!!!!!!!!
