[|Human|] Hi,I started with body aches about three days ago, then fever started averaging about 101 for two days.  Throat pain started the evening of the first day along with chills.  The following morning, when taking out my retainer, my gums hurt.  It hurt to brush my teeth.  I went to a Stat Center and the doctor told me I had a secondary bacterial gum infection caused by a viral infection of my throat.  He prescribed Zythromax, seven day course.  I am on day three of Zythromax, the fever is gone, but the throat and mouth pains continue.  Now, I have canker sores on my lower lip and blisters on my tongue.  Also my gums remain sore and swollen.  I have been researching and the Coxsackie virus appears a likely diagnosis.  I am at the point that I am unable to eat without a great deal of pain.  It is difficult to sleep due to pain.  I gargle with a peroxide mix and eat yogurt.  Any other suggestions and possible length of healing for this as yet undiagnosed condition.
[|AI|]  Thanks for your query. I have gone through your query. The features what you are presenting looks like herpetic gingivostomatitis. Consult an oral physician and get it ruled out. You can take topical anesthetic and analgesics like Anabel gel, apply 3-4times daily before food. You can take topical or systemic antiviral Chat Doctor.  Do saline gargling. You can take analgesics like diclofenac for body ache and fever. I hope my answer will help you. Take care.
