Could it be more serious?

I recently noticed I was having a minor headache, then I got a sore throat so I assumed I was coming down with a cold because usually my colds always begin with a sore throat. Since then my headache has become more severe and it is only on the right side of my head, at times I can feel it beating and occasionally I am dizzy and light headed when standing or walking, my sore throat is now only on my right side as well along with a toothache that may not be related but is unusual since I haven't had a toothache since I was a young child. Like I said I assumed I was just getting a cold but I have no othe symptoms and I rarely get headaches so having one last for about 3 days so far is very rare for me. I also haven't had much of an appetite, I've been thirsty but no food has been very appealing, I am able to eat, but everything tastes bland and not as satisfying as usual. Could it be more serious than a headache and sore throat or am I just thinking into it to much?

Re: Could it be more serious?

You need to see your doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment. It could just be a virus or it could be something more serious. Best to be on the safe side.

Re: Could it be more serious?

I think a doctor's visit is called for, here- it sounds like a sinus infection, and possibly a course of antibiotics will knock it out.

Good luck.
