A member asked:

I had a fever yesterday of about 103. i have a sore throat, an awful headache and my whole body aches. what could the problem be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Could be: strep throat, or any number of infections, some of them potentially serious. Fever of 103 is pretty high, so you should see a doctor for accurate diagnosis and proper treatment.
