Patient's question:
What should I do if I have a bacterial infection with a fever above 38 degrees Celsius? I had a fever for a week, thought it was a cold, and took cold medicine, but it didn't reduce the fever. The headache was severe.Previous treatment and effectiveness:
On the first day, I took Rapid Cold Relief Capsules, but it didn't help. Then I took three days of Roxithromycin and Nimesulide. Next, I received three days of Qingkailing injections at the community clinic. Just now, I went to Harbin Medical University Hospital for a blood test, and the doctor said it was a bacterial infection and suggested hospitalization, but the conditions don't allow it.
What kind of help I need:
What medicine can effectively reduce inflammation and fever?
Doctor's answer:
There are many reasons for the fever, mostly caused by viruses, bacteria, etc. It has been confirmed as a bacterial infection, and active anti-inflammatory treatment is required, primarily using Cefalexin for anti-inflammation. It is recommended to conduct bacterial culture and drug sensitivity tests to determine the most sensitive medication. During this period, pay attention to rest, drink more warm water, and take Anrik to reduce fever orally when the temperature is high, or use physical cooling methods. Regular follow-up tests are necessary.
