I'm feeling like I have a fever, but when I check my body temperature, it seems normal. I haven't got a thermometer handy right now. What should I do? Is there a specific medicine you'd recommend for this?

If you're experiencing internal feverish sensations without a raised body temperature, you can try taking Paracetamol (Crocin, Calpol, or equivalent) 500mg-1000mg, but if symptoms persist or worsen, consult a doctor to rule out underlying conditions that may require specific treatment.

I'm dealing with a cough and cold that have been bothering me for a few days now. It feels like the cough is really stuck in my chest. Could you tell me who I should see about this? Im also curious about how much the treatment might cost.

I recently got the Covishield vaccine and I'm wondering if I should take Dolo 650 even if I don't have a fever or headache yet, or is it best to wait and take it only if I actually start feeling feverish? What would you recommend?

no problem you can take

I've been dealing with a high fever for three days, and it kept staying over 101 and even hit 103.5 at one point before dropping to 99.5 on the same day. I checked in with a doctor and was told to take Dolo 650 and Meftal Forte, which I did. But now, three days later, I'm still feeling super weak, sleeping around 18 hours a day. Some old muscle pains in my left hand have started up again too, which might be from being so weak. I've been taking Neromet, a multi-vitamin, and vitamin C tablets, but they're not helping much. Today I've noticed redness all over my body, which I think could be an allergic reaction to some medication since this has never happened before. What could be going on here?

Hi Sunil, it seems like your body is still recovering from the fever, which is causing the prolonged weakness and muscle pain. The redness could be an allergic reaction to the medication, and it's important to consult your doctor to rule out any severe reactions. Rest, hydration, and monitoring your symptoms closely are key; if the redness worsens or new symptoms appear, seek immediate medical attention.
