What Is The Treatment For High Fever And Muscle Pain?

I tore a muscle in my calf. I heard a POP and I can t walk or straighten my leg. The hospital just gave me medicine and a wrap, I rented crutches and went on my way. Today, I developed a very high fever, and muscle aches. I am concerned that the conditions are somehow related, either as a result of the tear itself, or as a result of the medicine I was given to treat it.

Hello! Welcome to HealthcareMagic!

You might have developed fever because of your muscle tear. It's very common to get fever when you get injury. It's body defense system to fight injury. You don't have to be worried. And consult your doctor and get checked your POP once. Just to make sure it's been done properly. And take fever medications. And you will be fine.

Hope this clarifies your concerns. Thank you for the query.

Take care
