How Can Persistent Fever, Tiredness With Lack Of Appetite Be Treated?

I have had a fever for a week now, I feel tired all the time, and I have no appetite. I went to my doctors on monday and they gave me Azithromycin and tomorrow is my last day of taking it, but it's not helping at all so far. Do you have any ideas of what I might have or what I should do? my fever is between 99 and 102.5

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have fever, tiredness with lack of appetite which is due to viral infection which is lowering down your immunity and making you prone for infection. I would suggest you to apply wet cold sheets on your head to lower down body temperature. Avoid hot, spicy and sharp food substances. You should take combination of antiviral drug along with anti-inflammatory drug. Take nimuslide along with paracetamol as well.Take diet rich in multivitamins and vitamin C. Your symptoms will resolve in 4-5 days. avoid intake of sharp, oily and fried food. avoid cold carbonated beverages. If symptoms keeps on persisting visit ENT specialist once and get some routine blood investigation done. Take diet rich in multivitamins. Drink plenty of water. Take hot milk rich in turmeric as it will booster immunity.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
