I've been feeling a bit off and noticed my temperature is around 98.2F. I'm kind of worried if that's considered a fever, especially since it's summer. Is having a temperature between 97 and 99F something I should be concerned about right now?

View allI'm a bit of a hypochondriac and I've got a worry I can't shake. I tend to poke and press my lymph nodes pretty often, like maybe 10 to 15 times a day. Could doing this make them swell up or harm them? I know I'm checking them a lot, practically every hour, but I'm just really concerned. Is this something I should be worried about?
Yes, do not unnecessary press the lymph nodes. They are the organs which filter the infections from the body. These infection causing organisms will be stored in a dormant form in the lymph nodes so pressing it unnecessary is not a good thing. Secondly, examining oneself 10-15 times is alarming, it can be OCD with hypochrondria which requires medications.

I'm really concerned because I've been feeling really weak and my energy levels just keep dropping day by day. It's like no matter what I do, I can't shake this constant tiredness. Sometimes it even feels like I might be running a fever, but it just comes and goes. I find myself wanting to stay in bed almost all day because I'm always so exhausted. Could these be symptoms of something more serious, or is there something I could try to get my energy back up?

I'm dealing with a pretty bad flu and a serious cough. I'm already taking a syrup and an antibiotic like amoxiline 1g. So, if a doctor suggests paracetamol, is it just for pain relief or does it help fight the virus too? And what if I can manage the pain, do I really need to take the paracetamol?
Paracetamol has multiple actions ,usually given for fever and pain,you can follow your doctor advice.
