Pls advise what cud be the cause of this incessant high fever. Tanisa
Hi, From history it seems that she might be having acute upper respiratory tract infection mostly bacterial as there is elevated WBC count. Go for Widal test to rule out typhoid. After report your doctor will go for treatment accordingly. Ask her to do antiseptic water gargle. Avoid cold drinks and fried, junk food. Ok and take care.
