Any other symptoms?: Sore throat, cough, sinus pain, difficulty breathing, muscle aches, joint pains? Have u checked his temperature? Has he travelled outside the us recently? Keep hydrated with fluids. May be infection (viral/bacterial/fungal) or metabolic problem like diabetes or hyperthyroid. Should see pcp soon (at once if temp over 103˚) for thorough exam, tests, treatment. Take along list of meds & supplements.
