My father has been bedridden for over 15 years and developed bed sores on both buttocks in the last 5 years. We do daily dressings but now the sores are turning black. He's also had fever for the past 23 days. We're in Pune and not considering surgery since he's handicapped and can't move. Could you suggest a good doctor to treat this? Attached his haemogram report for reference.

I've been feeling really sick for about three weeks now, and it's getting frustrating. I used coartem and ciprotab during the first week, and while the body pains stopped, I'm still feeling super weak and feverish. It's hard to sleep, and every morning I wake up feeling terrible. I got tested for malaria and typhoid, and both came back negative. I tried paracetamol, and it helped a bit for a couple of days, but then I went back to feeling awful. I just can't figure out what's going on with my body, and I'm really worried. Any ideas on what could be happening?
