Why sudden onset of weakness? ..is it at the same level or worsening?..when u say weakness is it like inability to hold chappals,  or inability to get up after sitting on the floor? If yes...u need urgent consultation and evaluation... If no..and its just aching with mild weakness can try hydration...with ORS. .or coconut water...or little high salt intake( 7grams ) for 1 - 2 days and wait
