Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What to do? 71 yr old, low grade fever, severe cough, 7 days. Same time period, severe lower back pain, left shoulder pain (muscle pain)..loss of appetite, weakness, bouts of hiccups middle of night., lots of belching. Type 2 diabetic. Prior triple by-pass.
See as you are too old some of the problem you have mentioned are quite common in this age like back pain, loss of appetite etc. For fever you can take tab dolo 650 or tab calpol every 8-12 hours along with syrup bro-zedex or syrup asthakind every 8-12 hours for cough. you can also take some multivitamins and protein supplements for weakness and decreased appetite. If still any issues you can get in touch with your doctor.
