What Causes Ear Infection, Swollen Throat, Spleen And Liver?
Hi. I have a very lengthy medical history (Behcet s, Lupus, nephritis, stroke, mono, Lyme disease, hypertension ,blood clotting factors) and just recently have started having a flu-like feeling, double ear infection, swollen throat, spleen and liver, and have had drenching sweating for no reason (mostly at night) and alternating low to normal temps(for me) followed by fever higher than 102. I can go from 97 to102 in a matter of mi nutes for no reason. Today, I was watching TV and within a short time I had a big bruise and lump on my hand. I get nodules on my legs occasionally from vasculitis and they look just like this. I had tiny petichae all over my Buddy a child weeks ago but my rheumatologist couldn t get me in until they were gone. Any thoughts?

Hello,
It may be due to:
1. Acute viral infection with rash
2. Hey Fever
3. Drugs if you are taking, lupus nephritis with rash
4. Uremic dermatopathy
Until examination of the lesions done, it is difficult to say what it is. Please check for platelet count, and serum uric acid level.
Use paracetamol drug thrice a day for five days. If symptoms not improved, please consult your doctor, he/she will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
