I have been suffering from Chikungunya for the past 2 weeks. During this period, I experienced upper thigh and knee joint pain for 2 days, which is now under control with medication. My blood report shows increased WBC, and my doctor mentioned a possible viral and bacterial infection. I have also been having loose motions (liquid stools) for the past 3 days and a fever above 102F for several days. My medical history includes urinary tract infections, and my kidneys are shrunk.

Likely post viral with bacterial component. Continue hydration, monitor kidney function, and follow up on loose stools.

Hello doctor, I have lower back pain since evening, along with gastric issues and a lot of tiredness. I was COVID positive 5 months back and I am also a hypochondria patient. I read that lower back pain and tiredness can be related to blood cancer, which makes me scared. My blood report in February was normal. Please suggest genuine advice?

I have been experiencing extreme weakness and fatigue. This started after I had a cough and lung infection in January due to dust. The cough reduced within a week, and everything seemed normal. I have thyroid and take 25 mcg, and my thyroid levels were checked in March and were under good control. Since recovering from the cough, I have lost weight and continue to feel very weak. I was already underweight at 45 kg, and now I am 43 kg. My blood tests from March were normal.

I am experiencing stomach pain and severe pain just below my chest. All my reports are normal except the blood report, which showed a blood infection with a count of about 22,000 and enthesitis with a value of 65, causing itching on my entire legs.
