Body aches are a side effect of the immune system response to an invading pathogen or germ. When your immune system detects the presence of these foreign objects, it uses certain proteins and chemicals (called cytokines) to communicate with the rest of the body. Some of these cytokines (like interleukins) can cause such things as fever and body aches, because they trigger these specific reactions.

Alot of people get sick, for different reasons, Example: Bacteria/Germs gather up in your body, And that causes you to get sick, You can get sick from touching your face. Like now, You are reading this, your hand was on the keyboard/mouse. After, your done, make sure you wash your hands with water and soap for at least 20 seconds, then dry off. DONT wipe on your pants, shirts, clothing ect. That is just bringing more germs onto your body.

Make sure you don't miss out on alot of showers, germs can gather up all over your body. And make you sick.

Oh, & get some sleep.. Don't touch your face,

It depends on what kind of sickness you have. For example, for fever, you can get cough, running nose, headache and aching of the bones. For flu, it can be running nose, itchy nose, painful nose, sore eyes, phlegm and discomfort at the throat.

The body's resources are converted to producing and reproducing the virus instead of fighting off the infection. The body generates heat from the increase in metabolism and the immune system kicks into overdrive trying to defeat the invader. Until the body stops reproducing the virus, we can spread the infection easily.

well the minute something un friendly like a virus,or sickness enters your body, your body knows it. so your white blood cells go to fight it, and your white blood cells are producing like crazy so they can win. but the sickness could be mutating or becomeing bigger make it longer to get better. also your body is telling you in a sense what it wants, you just have to lisen, like when your throat really hurts like mine right now, and you think something cold will help, drink some milk. for me i wanted a pickle something sour, so i ate the pickle, and i felt better, it was because of the vineger that was in it.
