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.
I had a car accident (very minimal, no open wounds or serious injury s, just muscle pains), however the day after the accident I got a high fever, today is the third day I have been I ll and there is no signs of it going away. Could my accident and fever be related??
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
If accident is minimal with no open wounds, I don't think your fever is because of accident. Better to consult your doctor for fever. You will need blood reports to diagnose the cause of fever. You will need anti pyretic, anti malarial, antibiotics based on the reports.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
