I have had fever and headache since yesterday. My doctor tested my blood and found that my WBC count is elevated (12,200). I have been taking the prescribed medicine, but the fever and headache have not improved. What should I do?

Fever with headache and high WBC (12,200) suggests infection, possibly viral or bacterial. If fever and headache continue, do a Malaria Test, Dengue NS1 Antigen, and CRP to rule out serious infections. Keep drinking fluids, take rest, and continue medicines as advised. If you develop severe headache, neck stiffness, vomiting, or breathlessness, go to the hospital immediately.

Take a Malarial Test Test or Take a Dengue NS1 Antigen - Elisa Test
