The past few days I have had afever of between 99.9 and 102.9 chills a massive pressure headache trouble brearhing and a large red swollen spot on the left side of my neck. I have lupus and firomyalgia. I also have sores in my mouth. What is going on?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, if the febrile state long last more than 5 days then it needs to be investigated and for this it is necessary to get done the clinically examination and blood test, else fever could be due to viral infection or it could be due to some functional elements and it is nothing to worry, neck swelling could be lymph node and it need to be kept under observation it may be abscess, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
