Suggest Treatment For Fever

Hi, I have a fever, cant stop sweating but am cold all the time. I lay in bed and my lower back is killing me not allowing me to get more than 30 mins of sleep at a time. I have a painful cough, which is getting better and my poo is black. Do I have any reason to be concerned?

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have fever along with sweating and cold and myalgia which is mainly due to viral infection. You seems to have fever of high grade. Need not to worry, it will take 5-7 days for fever to go away. Till then do tepid sponging on head and extremities. Avoid intake of any oily and fried food and cold carbonated liquids. Take combination of antibiotic such as Levofloxacin along with Ibuprofen/ Acetaminophen. You should take Levocetrizine as well. as you are having along with back paion, you should take cough expectorants along with warm saline gargles as well. Apply mist humidifiers in room. Take muscle relaxants as well. Visit general physician once and get it examined and go for blood and sputum tests and start treatment.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
