Acetaminophen: Tylenol (Acetaminophen) may help with the aches and fever, given the nature of your symptoms and as long as you don't have any liver dysfunction. 1-2 tabs (usually somewhere between 325 to 650mg) every 4 to 6 hours as needed to control symptoms. However, if these symptoms persist beyond 4-5 days or you start vomiting or are unable to keep down fluids, see your doctor. Stay hydrated!
