My grandmother has been getting a fever every evening, around 100 to 101 degrees, for the past five days. She feels fine in the morning but then suddenly starts feeling cold and the fever kicks in during the evening. We've been giving her Crocin each night, but we're not sure what else to do. Could you give us some advice on how to help her?

I'm a bit unsure about how to use these ear drops for wax that I got from the chemist. Theyre called Drep Wax drops, but there's no information on the bottle about how many drops I should be using. Could you let me know how to go about using them?

You can instill 3 drops three times a day,do not attempt to remove the wax by your self,let it come out on its own.
