Feeling Cold, Dizzy, Weak Body, Accompanied By A Sore Throat?
Hello, I’m Rosalia, a student in Yogya. I want to ask, since Monday night I have a fever. Chills, dizziness, and weakness. Then in the morning he started to feel sore throat and finally coughed up a runny nose. But the cold cough was accompanied by nausea, dizziness, flatulence, and body aches. Sometimes I sweat a lot, then at night I get cold again. I wonder why, oh yeah, I also have stomach ulcers and at the end of last February I had a chance to donate blood. After the blood donation, I did my usual activities, but I only took blood-boosting medicine once. So during this time of illness, I only took vitamins, blood-boosting drugs, and anti-nausea drugs, I rarely took medication for dizziness unless it was urgent. Do you think it has something to do with my current illness? Thanks.

Hello, Rosalia. Thanks for the question to the HealthReplies.com team.
Feeling cold, dizzy, feeling weak, usually occurs when the body's immune system is decreasing, so it is susceptible to infections, whether viruses, bacteria, fungi, or parasites. This decrease in body resistance can occur in conditions of fatigue, stress, or lack of nutritional intake. Possible causes for your complaint include:
- flu
- sore throat
- pharyngitis
- other upper respiratory tract infections
To find out the exact cause of your complaint, consult a doctor directly to get a thorough examination and further treatment. Some things you can do to relieve symptoms include:
- consume lots of warm water
- Consumption of foods high in nutrients, especially protein
- enough rest
- compress the body with warm water if you have a fever
- eat regularly and on time every day, avoid foods that are too sour, too spicy, or high in fat
- exercise regularly to increase endurance
- take painkillers such as paracetamol if necessary
- manage stress well
