I have had a fever for the last 3 days. I tested for COVID, typhoid, and malaria, all are negative. When I take paracetamol, the fever goes down for 6 hours, then rises again to 101 degrees F. It is now the 4th day. What should I do? I have attached my blood test report. Please kindly help and suggest.

Likely viral fever. If fever persists beyond 5 to 6 days, repeat blood tests. Monitor symptoms, rest, and stay hydrated. Get done CRP and dengue labs.

Dr. Dhankecha Suggests...

Take a CRP Test (C - Reactive Protein) Test or Take a Dengue Profile - Elisa Test

Book CRP Test (C - Reactive Protein) Test Book Dengue Profile - Elisa Test

I have a fever and did a test for malaria, but the result was negative. Yet, the doctor started malaria medication for 2 days. Is it okay to take it?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I have been experiencing a low grade fever for the past two months, with temperatures ranging from 99.1 to 99.3F in the morning and evening. Is this something serious? My urine report and culture are normal. I am attaching my CBC, ESR, and typhoid test reports for your reference.
