Fatigue, shoulder ache, headache for 1 week now
I’m a woman in my early 20s who has been experiencing extreme shoulder ache, persistent day-long headaches and fatigue. I’m working in office during MCO so am unsure if have come in contact with someone infected with COVID19 or not. No fever every morning when checked (around 36c) but I feel like my head is a little heated up/very uncomfortable. No cough/sore throat. Slowly decreased appetite. Not sure if it is relevant but have been having yellow discharge from vagina with fishy odor for years now. Recently having vaginal itching.

Hi!
Thank you for your question. I understand you are worried about contracting the COVID-19 infection due to your symptoms of fatigue and muscle pain. According to WHO, the common symptoms of COVID-19 infection are:
- Fever (more than 37.5 degrees celcius)
- Fatigue
- Cough
- Aches and pains
- Sorethroat
- Headaches
- Shortness of breath
Based on your symptoms, you are encouraged to answer the quiz on Risk Assessment for COVID-19 to evaluate your health status in regards to this disease. After completing this quiz, you will be classified into several categories.
Besides COVID-19 infection, your symptoms may be caused by:
- Abdominal pain that spreads to the chest
- Pain originating from the chest wall (muscles, joints and ribs)
- Trauma
- Heart attack
- Anxiety
On the other hand, vaginal itchiness may be due to:
- The use of estrogen as a dietary supplement
- Increased estrogen from pregnancy or obesity.
- People with diabetes or those with a weak immune system such as patients undergoing chemotherapy or having HIV infection as well as patients with organ transplants
- Long-term use of antibiotics can also lead to vaginal fungal infections
