Hello,
I am Dr. Romain Rajan, General Physician (Ex Govt Medical Officer at RML Hospital, New Delhi), and your case has been allotted to me.
Thank you for sharing your symptoms. I understand that having high fever along with body pain and weakness can be distressing, and I will guide you clearly.
Based on the information you have shared, symptoms like fever around 101°F, nausea, body ache, cold, neck pain, weakness, dry mouth, and low appetite are most commonly seen in acute viral infections such as viral fever or flu. Dehydration due to fever can also contribute to dry mouth and weakness.
At present, your symptoms do not suggest an immediate emergency, but they do require proper care and close monitoring, especially in the first 48 to 72 hours.
What you should do now
⢠Take adequate rest and avoid physical exertion
⢠Maintain good hydration with water, ORS, coconut water, or clear fluids
⢠Take light, easily digestible food in small portions
⢠Use paracetamol for fever and body pain as advised
⢠Avoid cold drinks, outside food, and unnecessary medicines
⢠Monitor temperature and overall symptoms daily
When you should consult a doctor immediately
⢠If fever persists beyond 2 to 3 days or rises above 102°F
⢠If neck pain becomes severe or neck stiffness develops
⢠If vomiting becomes persistent or you are unable to take fluids
⢠If there is severe weakness, confusion, breathlessness, or chest discomfort
⢠If symptoms worsen instead of improving
Please remember that online advice has its limitations. If fever continues, blood tests may be required to rule out conditions like dengue, malaria, typhoid, or bacterial infection depending on your clinical course.
You may share your temperature readings, duration of symptoms, or any previous reports, and I will guide you further.
For personalised one to one consultation on this case or any other health concern in the future, you can reach out to me directly on WhatsApp at 85271646 seven seven. A detailed consultation helps in proper assessment, timely treatment, and peace of mind.
Wishing you good health and a speedy recovery.
Dr. Romain Rajan
General Physician

Since how long have you been having the symptoms? It's very much possible that it's due the common cold going around. Gargle with salt water, take regular steam, sip on hot water. If the symptoms don't improve in 5 days, visit an ENT doctor in person.
