Write a history of present illness for this conversation between a doctor and a patient: Patient: Good morning, Doctor. I've been having a sore throat for a couple of days now and it's getting worse. I also have a headache and some fever.
Doctor: Good morning. I see. Can you describe your symptoms in more detail? How severe is your sore throat? And what's the temperature of your fever?
Patient: It's quite painful, especially when I swallow. And my voice is hoarse. The temperature of my fever is 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit.
Doctor: Okay. Based on your symptoms, it sounds like you might have a viral infection, which is causing your sore throat. I'll do a physical examination to confirm my diagnosis.
Doctor examines the patient's throat and neck.
Doctor: I can see some redness and swelling in your throat, which is consistent with a viral infection. Your lymph nodes are also swollen.
Patient: Oh, I see. What's the treatment plan for this?
Doctor: Unfortunately, there's no cure for viral infections. However, we can manage your symptoms with pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen for your headache and sore throat. I'll also prescribe some throat lozenges to soothe your throat. It's important to drink plenty of fluids and get plenty of rest.
Patient: Okay, thank you, Doctor. How long will it take to recover from this?
Doctor: It usually takes about a week for symptoms to resolve, but it may take longer for your sore throat to go away completely. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please come back and see me.
Patient: Alright, I'll do that. Thank you, Doctor.
Doctor: You're welcome. Take care and feel better soon. Make sure to only use capital letters in your entire response.
