The phrases
몸이 안 좋아요
momi an joayo
I don't feel well
몸 = body. Literally 'my body isn't good'.

I have a headache
아프다 = to hurt, and the ㅡ drops: 아파요. Name the body part + 이/가 아파요.
배가 아파요
baega apayo
My stomach hurts
배 means stomach — and also boat, and also pear. Context does the work.
열이 나요
yeori nayo
I have a fever
열 = heat, fever. 나다 = to come out, used for fevers, colds and sneezes.
감기에 걸렸어요
gamgie geollyeosseoyo
I've caught a cold
감기에 걸리다 = 'to be caught by a cold' — the cold does the catching.

Where's the pharmacy?
약 = medicine, 국 here = office. 약국 = pharmacy.

I need to see a doctor
병원 covers everything from a GP's office to a hospital.

알레르기 comes from German, not English — hence the spelling.

쉬다 = to rest. The 것 같아요 hedge softens it, as usual.
