Fever persisting despite ofloxacin needs review. Check CBC, ESR, CRP, blood culture, and consider typhoid test or TB workup if indicated. Avoid overusing antibiotics blindly.

My daughter has been having fever for the last 13 days, occurring two to three times a day. She feels cold before the fever starts. After taking Crocin, her temperature comes down, but it rises again to around 100 to 101F. Her urine report is normal. She has already taken a 3 day course of antibiotics, but the fever persists. I would like guidance on what should be done next.

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?

I have a fever and did a test for malaria, but the result was negative. Yet, the doctor started malaria medication for 2 days. Is it okay to take it?
