I'm experiencing these persistent hiccups that started yesterday and just won't go away. I've been drinking plenty of water and even tried some home remedies, but they only seem to work for a bit before the hiccups come back. Can you help figure out what's causing this and suggest what I should do next?

I'm really worried because I've been experiencing a fever and headache for the past four days. I've tried taking dolo 650 a couple of times for the last three days, which helps the headache for a while, but then it comes back. Last night when I checked, my temperature was around 97.298.197.4. I'm at the office today, but I'm still dealing with the headache and feeling weak. What do you think could be going on? I don't have chills or any other symptoms. Any advice would be appreciated.

I'm feeling pretty rough since last night with this body ache. Now it's morning, and I'm dealing with the body ache, plus a headache and a slight fever. What medicine can I take to help? I want to mention that I'm allergic to floxacin.

-You can take paracetamol (500 mg) to reduce the fever, headache, and body acheone tablet every 68 hours as needed. Stay hydrated and rest. Since you're allergic to floxacin, avoid antibiotics without a doctor's consultation.
