I'm a 32-year-old guy and I've been dealing with something odd for a while. My body, especially my hands, always feel really hot, and people often ask me if I have a fever when I shake their hands. This has been going on for many years and I'm starting to get worried. Could there be something going on with my health? Any advice would be appreciated.

it sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of hyperhidrosis, which is excessive sweating that can make your body feel hot. I recommend trying anticholinergic medications such as Glycopyrrolate. This medication can help reduce excessive sweating and make you feel more comfortable. Remember to stay hydrated and avoid triggers that may worsen your symptoms.

View allI've been dealing with a cold and body ache for about a week now. When I got some blood tests done, they showed I have both Typhoid and Malaria. It's been tough, and I've been taking medication for the past three days, but I'm still not feeling much better. Another thing that's bothering me is this really dark yellow urine I've noticed since yesterday. Could this be because of the medicines I'm taking? Is this something I should be worried about?
Persistent Fever, Muscle Pain, and Headache _Possible Causes_ 1. _Viral infections_: Influenza, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), or other viral infections can cause persistent fever, muscle pain, and headache. 2. _Bacterial infections_: Prolonged use of Augmentin (amoxicillin-clavulanate) without improvement suggests the infection might be resistant to the antibiotic or not bacterial in nature. 3. _Other conditions_: Autoimmune disorders, such as rheumatoid arthritis or lupus, can cause persistent fever, muscle pain, and headache. _Recommendations_ 1. _Consult a doctor_: Schedule an appointment with your primary care physician or an infectious disease specialist to reassess your symptoms and adjust treatment. 2. _Blood tests and imaging studies_: Your doctor may order blood tests (e.g., complete blood count, inflammatory markers) and imaging studies (e.g., chest X-ray, ultrasound) to rule out underlying conditions. 3. _Antiviral medication or alternative antibiotics_: Depending on the diagnosis, your doctor may prescribe antiviral medication or alternative antibiotics. 4. _Pain management_: Continue taking Paracetamol (acetaminophen) as directed for pain relief. 5. _Rest and hydration_: Ensure you're getting plenty of rest and staying hydrated to help your body recover.

I'm feeling this weird internal fever for the past four days, even though my thermometer says I'm at a normal 98.6. I just don't feel right on the inside, you know? Im not experiencing body aches or anything like shortness of breath, but I'm definitely not feeling as active as usual. There's no cough, but there's a slight discomfort in my chest. Do you think this could be related to COVID-19 or maybe it's just anxiety? Im really worried because they sealed our society after someone tested positive for coronavirus. Any advice or insights would be appreciated.
its better to check for covid because history of covid is there recently
