Explanation for each option:

Malaise and body aches: These are examples of symptoms, not signs. Symptoms are subjective indications of disease experienced by the patient.
A subjective indication of disease: This describes a symptom, not a sign. Symptoms are reported by the patient and cannot be directly measured by health care personnel.
