Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Had this a week now-started out with extreem pain all over my body-exhausted. Chills. Developed a dry cough-if i take cough drop get bad indigestion. Now have a low grade fever, tired, still have the dry cough. Is this bacterial or a virus-and am i contageous
Hi, From history as one week is passed having these symptoms, there is more likely of having bacterial infection. You might require blood check up for total count and differential count. You may require one antibiotic medicine course after consulting your doctor. Avoid fried and junk food. Ok and take care.
