As per my report, my ferritin levels are high, and my chest Xray shows inflammation. I have also used Remdesivir, but the inflammation is not reducing. How many days will it take to heal? I also have rashes all over my body and body weakness. Please advise.

High ferritin and lung inflammation may indicate ongoing COVID related inflammation. Recovery varies (2 to 6 weeks). Rashes may be post viral. Continue rest, hydration, mild breathing exercises.

Hi, I was diagnosed with malaria 14 days ago and 2 days before, malaria was not detected in my blood report. I was discharged from the hospital. I am 68 years old. But even after discharge, I am still getting fever of 101 to 102 degrees C. Also, fever is observed only on the head, whereas the body is cold. Please suggest. Your opinion would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
