You may take paracetamol for fever, no more than 4 g in one day, no alcohol, Drink enough water so that your urine is mostly colorless. If you develop breathing difficulty see a doctor or to an emergency room.

Don't treat what you don't know until you know what your treating. See a doctor and get tested for you to receive the proper treatment. Don't treat yourself with the wrong medications.
