constant sore throat, headache, fatigue, tiredness what can it be ?

Question

Sore throat from coughing, headache, sinus symptoms, fatigue and ill feeling?

Answer 1

Vague symptoms: These symptoms can be in seen in a multitude of conditions. An infectious mononucleosis-like syndrome is possible, but in order to be adequately diagnosed you need to be seen and examined as part of the evaluation. Best.

Answer 2

No: It could especially if it is crampy and comes and goes every few minutes. However, it could be due to additional strain in your low back muscles due to your expanding belly and less postural support from your stomach (rectus) muscles. It could also be pain in your pelvis (si joints) from the hip bones "moving" to create more room for your baby to come out. If uncertain see your healthcare provider.

Answer 3

No: Not necessarily. Lover back pain is extremely common in pregnancy. It is due to the added weight and strain on the back. Labor typically has a pattern to it. Speak to your doctor.

Answer 4

No: I had lower back pain on and off from about 20 weeks on and my doctor said it was totally normal. I started doing some stretches and it seemed to work.

Answer 5

No: Full term labor is pretty hard to mistake. Early labor may be mild, but once it's in full swing, you should be able to tell. Put your hand on your belly and see if it is hardening with the pains. Another sign is rythmicity: contractions come and go, so the pain goes pretty much away and then returns.

Answer 6

No: Not necessarily. If it seems like rhythmic cramping/tightening in the lower back or is associated with that sensation in the abdomen, then it may be labor. Braxton-hicks, or false labor pains, are irregular contractions/pains that are self limited and not regular in nature. Often it is better to have false alarms and be checked for labor than to completely ignore the symptoms.

Answer 7

No: One has to be a little more specific. Back pain that comes and goes may be contractions, while continuous back pain may not be. If there is concern its better to be evaluated by a physician.

Answer 8

Not necessarily: There are many aches reported by pregnant women. Most providers want to hear about recurrent, severe or worrisome aches or pain. One of the more common complaints in late pregnancy is backache. It typically is due to changes in muscles, "swaying" of the spine (lordosis), pressure on the pelvis, etc. Low back pain can also be associated with early labor. If in doubt or high-risk, women should call.

Answer 9

Not likely: Any new breast lump that you find (even in pregnancy) should be evaluated by your physician. Even pregnant women can rarely develop breast cancer, but this is more likely a benign condition like a clogged milk duct. Your doctor will decide if any additional testing is needed.

Answer 10

Get it checked.: The lump is probably due to hormone and glandular changes, but any lump should be taken seriously. No need for alarm, but ask your doctor to check it. He or she might feel a breast ultrasound would be useful.

Answer 11

Probably not: Pain is not a common symptom of breast cancer. However you should alert any changes in your breasts to your physician.

Answer 12

Hard to tell: Neck pain and joint pain is just as common in eds as in many other non-eds causes. As far as joint surgeries go, I am not sure what kind of surgeries you had and for what reason. Definitely, eds patients have multiple joint problems (hypermobility, fractures, laxaty etc.) that makes them prone to trauma etc.

Answer 13

Can be: There are several websites that discuss eds. This site appears to be a good one: http://www.Medicinenet.Com/ehlers-danlos_syndrome/article.Htm get the facts on ehlers-danlos syndrome (eds) symptoms (joint hypermobility, skin laxity), causes (inherited), diagnosis, types, treatment and research.

Answer 14

Yes: I recomend you keep the throat clean. Rinse and swish after meals. Use an antiseptic mouth wash. Avoid feeding the invading organisms.

Answer 15

Yes: Sugar is a metabolic poison. It is a root cause of high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease, obesity, cancer, inflammatory diseases. Sugar is highly addictive. The less sugar you consume, the healthier you will be. Sugar can adversely affect your immune system.

Answer 16

Multiple reasons: Could be something as simple as anxiety or something pathology in the area. Would recommend seeing an ENT specialist to evaluate it.
