Had laproscopic surgery four days ago.Still in a lot of pain but slowly getting better.Now I ve developed a low grade temp (100.1)but there is no evidence of infection at my incision sites. Able to pass both urine and bm. No vomiting, no sob. Have a slight dry cough ( like twice an hour) and pain under right rib cage. My question is, how concerning Is the fever? Every thing seems too be going in the right direction but that.
