How long do fevers last?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Fever is just a symptom of any underlying bacterial or viral infection and so, duration of fever depends on that particular causative organism. Usually, most fevers usually go away in 1 to 3 days in adults.

View allI'm trying to understand my daughter's situation better. Her platelet count was 2.55 lakh on the 22nd of September. Today it dropped to 1.85 lakh, though her fever's reduced, and she's still on medication. Is her platelet count within normal range? Could you explain what this means for her health?
A normal platelet count ranges from 1.5 to 4.5 lakhs per microliter (L); your daughter's current platelet count of 1.85 lakhs is within the lower normal range, which is a good sign, especially since her fever has subsided; however, it's essential to continue monitoring her platelet count and overall health under the guidance of her healthcare provider to ensure the underlying condition is being effectively managed.

I'm really curious about the pcv and rv vaccines for my 1.5-month-old baby. Are these vaccines essential at this age? I'm feeling a bit anxious, so any advice would be appreciated.
For a 1.5-month-old baby, the PCV (Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine) and RV (Rotavirus Vaccine) are indeed recommended vaccinations. - PCV Vaccine Schedule: Typically administered in two primary doses at 6 weeks and 14 weeks, followed by a booster dose at 9-12 months of age. - RV Vaccine Schedule: Usually given in three doses at 6 weeks, 10 weeks, and 14 weeks. It's essential to consult your pediatrician for personalized advice and to ensure your baby receives the necessary vaccinations on time.
