Suggest Medication For Fever

I've had a sore throat for about a month. I've been to the campus doctor twice. The first time I was prescribed amoxicillin for strep, but it didn't work. So I went back again, and they told me I had some kind of viral infection. I have a sore throat, fever (for the first week), headaches, shortness of breath, cough, tongue pain, tiredness, and a lesser appetite. Do you know what I could have?

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have fever and sore throat since about a month which could be due to viral/ bacterial infection of body. I would suggest you nothing to worry about it. You have to booster your immunity by taking multivitamins and diet rich in vitamin A. You should take NSAID medication along with antibiotic such as Levofloxacin. You should take plenty of fluids. Avoid taking any sharp and oily food substances . You should take soft and bland food. You should take fresh juices in diet. Try to divide your meals in small fractions rather than having bulk at a time. Visit general physician once and get it examined. Go for blood tests as well. Start treatment after proper diagnosis.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
