Hi there,

Thanks for writing in.

I would like to advise you to get further blood investigations done to rule out other disorders like Tuberculosis, Typhoid, Malaria, Dengue,etc since you are having persistent fever etc.

Please visit a physician at the earliest who might also advise a chest X ray, Ultrasound abdomen and other blood investigations after a detailed history and examination.

In the meantime, keep yourself well rehydrated. Drink plenty of fluids. Take a tablet of paracetamol.

But please do visit a physician at the earliest..

Take care.

Regards,
Dr. Divya Kuttikrishnan

Hi Arjun

Thanks for posting your query.

Most common cause of fever is bacterial or viral infection .
What test you have done is not sufficient to diagnose what is causing fever in you.
It could be Typhoid , Malaria , Dengue fever, Throat infection , Pneumonia etc .

I advise you to get Complete Hemogram IgM Typhi dot, Smear for malaria parasite and revert back to me with reports .

Till then you can take paracetamol for fever.

Looking forward for your reply.
