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.
I have had a headache almost every day for 10 plus days, I ve also had about 4 days I between with a low grade fever (99.1 which is high for me) now on approximately my 10th day, again with fever, I m developing a mild red bumpy rash on the top of my feet and slightly up the leg. I have chills and sweating with the fever, but no other symptoms. I ve also been on ibuprophen almost the whole time...
The cause of fever should be identified.In case of fever persisting for more than 3 days,complete blood count,peripheral smear and widal test may be required.Any history of recent travel should be ruled out.MRI scan is required to identify the cause of headache.Visual disturbances and head injury should be ruled out.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards Dr.Saranya Ramadoss, General and Family Physician
