QUESTION

Can a person suffering from malaria suffer from stomach-aches?

ANSWER

Sometimes people with malaria have nausea,  vomiting and diarrhea, but the most common symptoms include fever and flu-like illness, such as shaking chills, headache, muscle aches, and tiredness. Malaria may cause anemia and jaundice (yellow coloring of the skin and eyes) because of the loss of red blood cells.
