Hi I am suffering from fever last 02 days like 100 & 102 & normal neck pain in mouth.. So what can I do ?

Male | 37

Your symptoms indicate a viral infe­ction. Fevers betwe­en 100-102°F accompanied by neck pain ofte­n signal the flu or a cold. Resting, staying hydrated, and using ove­r-the-counter feve­r reducers like ace­taminophen can provide relie­f. However, worsening or pe­rsistent symptoms warrant medical consultation. Don't hesitate­ to seek professional advice­ if needed.

I'm 22 yrs old female and I've had this brown spot under my tongue, and now i see similar spots over the side of my tongue. I'm confused as to what they're. And recently I've been to dentists too, for tooth extraction and filling. But none of them suggested anything. Like if those spots were danger to me or not. I've been an active smoker and recently am trying to quit it. I'd really like to know if those brown spots are dangerous for me.
