Viral illness: A tincture of time is a great remedy for most self-limited viral illnesses. Keep yourself comformtable, Acetaminophen or Ibuprofen for pain, and diet as tolerated. If nausea is a problem and vomiting persistent, there are prescription medications to control that. Hope you are feeling better soon.
