Suggest Treatment For Persistent Fever

My father aged 55years is having fever for the past 2 weeks. the fever rises in the morning at around 4'o' clock in the morning but the temperature is normal during the day. he has had antibiotics and other medications but of no use. I, myself, being a medico consider it to be a viral fever bt the time related rising temperature is bothering me and the family doctor. The blood culture tests have been negative. He has been taking medicines for the auto immune disease. please help.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have persistent fever 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. 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
