Throat ulcer, fatigue, headaches. I typed my symptoms on Google and it gives me HIV. Should I go for an emergency consultation?

Hello Ma'am,

No, there is no need to visit the 😊 emergency room.

What you are presenting with here may well be a simple cold virus or an infection that causes pharyngitis. We're right in the thick of the season!"

In any case, if you don't have a fever, I recommend just resting for a few days and seeing a doctor if your symptoms are still present in 5 days.

In the meantime, avoid eating foods that are too sweet, spicy, or salty (as it could irritate the throat) and drink plenty of water. If needed for pain, take Advil™ or Tylenol™.

Happy day,

Alexander
