I'm really worried because I've been taking paracetamol every 5 hours like they told me, but it's the third day now and I still don't see any improvement in my dengue fever symptoms. Could you suggest anything else I might try to get this under control?

It takes some time for the fever to come down.Take paracetamol as prescribed and drink 3-4 litres of water everyday. Keep checking your platelet count regularly and if there is drastic fall in the count then immediately contact your doctor again for further advise

View allI'm experiencing something strange where my head feels really hot, but my hands and legs are actually cold. What could be causing this? I'm just trying to understand why my body temperature would be different in those areas. It's kind of worrying me.
An increase in body temperature localized to the head, while hands and legs remain cold, can be caused by various factors, including stress or anxiety, hormonal fluctuations, dehydration, poor blood circulation, or underlying medical conditions such as hyperthyroidism, migraines, or multiple sclerosis

I'm a bit worried because I've had a dry cough for about a week, and now the right side of my back is swollen. I went to the doctor, and she said the swelling is from the cough and it's nothing serious. The swelling has gone down, but I'm still feeling a little pain around my right rib area. Should I be concerned about this lingering pain? Could it be something more than just from the cough?
