Answer 1

Fever and headache is very vague as far as diseases go, you could take same Tylenol with a fever reducer, it might help.

Answer 2

Not long ago, I had those symptoms too. I ended up going to the doctor and it was a throat infection. The doctor prescribed penicillin, It may not be the same illness but if you're hesitating visiting the doctor because you don't have health insurance, you can try different medicines. First of all, try to get rid if the fever. Advil or Tylenol can help with both the fever and headache. Try not to drink anything cold to help your throat soreness. The no energy is just part of being sick. If you can, get as much bed rest as you can. It may hurt swallowing but drink plenty of fluids and try to eat. If you don't start to feel better or get worse, you have no choice but to visit a doctor.

Answer 3

Headache is a pain in the head, scalp or neck. Headaches can be
caused by minor problems like eyestrain, lack of coffee or more
serious reasons like head injury, brain tumors, encephalitis and
meningitis. Taking painkillers continuously can have harmful side
effects, so it is better to modify your lifestyle. More information

see your doctor. where is the headache? stuffy nose? any sore throat? coughing? stiff neck?

could be flu, sinusitis, meningitis...

if it doesn't go away go to the ER.

take 2 Tylenol every 6 hours for fever and headache, but see your doctor, it could be nothing or it could be very serious.
