How To Cure Recurring Fever During Typhoid Where Igg Is -ve And Igm Is +ve?
my 3 yr old daughter is diagonised wth typhoid. where igg is -ve n igm is +ve.she is on zifi 100(2wice a day) nd azithral 200,bt the fever is reoccuring every hour or two frm 101 to 104 while she is already prescribed meftal-p nd ibugesic fr fever. cud you suggest anything
I am so sorry to hear about this typhoid your child has been diagnosed of. I am happy to know she is already on treatment. Fever is managed with drugs. Paracetamol can be given every 6hours and Ibuprofen every 8hours. I will suggest that you give the ibuprofen in between doses of paracetamol to ensure that the fever is covered continuously by the ibuprofen and meftal-p. Also, dress the child light, administer fluids and place cold towels. all these would be helpful to keep the fever controlled. the good news is that as this infection gets treated, there would be no more need for fever medications.
Ii hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarification if need be. Thanks for using our services.
