Question 1

My father has been suffering from cough, fever, and breathing difficulties for the past few days. He is also not eating properly due to taste issues. We are awaiting his COVID 19 test report. Meanwhile, could you please advise what medications he can take and what precautions we should follow?

Question 2

After a high fever, I have severe itching that I am unable to control. All night and day I do not get a single moment of relief. A blood test report shows hemoglobin 10.4 gm percent and ESR (Wintrobe) 38 mm/st. There are no malaria or dengue symptoms. The physician said it is one of the typhoid symptoms, but in typhoid there should not be an itching problem. What could this be?

Question 3

My wife had dengue fever last week and was hospitalized. She was discharged 3 days ago, but this morning she developed a fever again. We gave her Dolo 650 as per the doctor suggestion, which reduced the fever, but it returns whenever she sleeps and wakes up. We did a CBC test today: Hemoglobin 10.4, RBC normal, Platelets 295, WBC 14.5. I am concerned, does she need to be hospitalized again? Please advise

My 11 month old baby has been having fever for the past 15 days. Only her head feels very hot, and it occurs mainly at night. Today, we did a blood test, which shows very low hemoglobin and a blood infection. What should I do, and what treatment is needed?

Continuous fever and low hemoglobin suggests possible infection or early anemia. Give fluids, iron rich foods, and continue prescribed treatment. Repeat CBC, CRP, Blood Culture, and Iron Studies for clearer diagnosis.
