Have you ever noticed that when you have a flu, it means 1. You can breathe through your nose 2. Your nose is forever dripping 3. Leads to headache, 4. Throat feels sore, scratchy and dry 5. Body aches. Now i understand how headache comes about. because it's somewhat linked to the nose. And well, the throat gets someone infected too because it's sharing some tract. Not exactly the best biology student. But body aches? My shoulder blades are hurting so badly and i wonder why. Can someone break this mystery for me? Why is it when i get a flu, my back and shoulder blades hurt too? But they ain't joined in anyway to my nose is it?

I am still doubtful. Is the pain due to flu or the medicines? Generally body ache occurs when the uric acid in our body goes up. These viruses stimulate it? I don't know, just a guess.
