What Causes Fever,body Chills And Headache Inspite Of Taking Tylenol And Motrin?
I have fever(averages about 100), chills, headache for 4 days. I had diarrhea briefly on the first day never felt nauseous but very gassy. No sore throat or cold - it is very strange. I am having some stomach pain but think it could be from taking tylenol and mortrin to bring down my fever. My nurse friend things it some kind of virus but I have never felt this bad for this long. I am calling my doctor first thing in the morning but I am feeling horrible right now. Any ideas? Thank you - Anne Van Horn
Hi, From history it seems that there might be having viral infection which remain for few days. If still fever persisted then go for routine blood and urine check up for any type of infection. Possibility of typhoid is there. In that case go for Widal test after 7 days of fever. Meanwhile take complete rest. Take light diet and plenty of water. Ok and take care.
