My husband has fever which keeps fluctuating. It does not go beyond 101 degrees C. He also complains of mild headache. Blood report was normal. He is under medication. I am worried. Is it just normal fever?

A fever that stays below 101 degrees C with mild headache and a normal blood report is likely viral. If it lasts more than 5 to 7 days, or new symptoms develop, consider seeing a doctor again. Keep up hydration and rest in the meantime.

I have been experiencing a low grade fever for the past two months, with temperatures ranging from 99.1 to 99.3F in the morning and evening. Is this something serious? My urine report and culture are normal. I am attaching my CBC, ESR, and typhoid test reports for your reference.

A 32 year old man is suffering from acute fever for the last 10 days. Temperature is 100 to 101 degrees F sometimes. His blood report is attached. He is taking Ofloxacin 200 mg twice a day. What is the case? Please advise.

My father in law, who is a policeman working long hours, appeared very tired and drowsy last night. He did not have nausea or vomiting, but his temperature was 102F. Today, we visited a nearby government hospital, and blood tests were done. His temperature is now normal. I have attached the blood test report and would appreciate your valuable advice. Thank you.
