Suggest Remedy For Extreme Fatigue And Cold

I am 23 years old with a history of extreme fatigue. I recently had my blood work drawn and it was discovered that my WBC was in the 1 s, my RBC right at 3.9 and my platelets at 90. Does this sound like anything that can be treated or a more serious ailment such as cancer? I am otherwise healthy despite getting every cold I encounter. Input would be appreciated!

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of extreme fatigue and cold this seems to be viral fever or flu. It happens due to poor immunity of body. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to take anti-inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen to prevent fever and body-ache. You should not take fried, hot and spicy food.Do warm saline gargles. Take analgesic and take light diet. Your symptoms will resolve in 3-4 days. If symptoms keeps on persisting visit general physician once and get it examined and start treatment after proper examination and prescription. Go for blood tests as well. Drink plenty of fluids, have proper rest. You should take muscle relaxant as well. You should do warm saline gargles on daily basis. Avoid cold carbonated liquids.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
