Patient's question:
A 32-year-old woman with no chronic diseases started experiencing a sore throat last night. Her temperature is 37.2°C. This morning, her temperature is 37.8°C with yellow phlegm, occasional blood streaks in the phlegm, nasal discharge, no cough, and slight body aches. She went to the hospital for a blood test and received the report below. The doctor suspected bacterial respiratory infection and prescribed a box of cefixime. She wants to have a child next month and is considering whether to skip antibiotics and rely on her body to recover. Her temperature has been consistently at 37.3°C, neither rising nor falling. Her appetite is okay, she has nasal discharge and phlegm.Doctor's answer:
Based on the situation you described, it is likely that the symptoms are caused by an upper respiratory infection.Suggested advice: Since your temperature is not very high and the inflammation is not severe, you can drink more warm water, eat some vegetables and fruits rich in vitamin C. Maintain a light diet and avoid spicy or irritating foods. Rest and avoid getting cold or overexerting yourself. Engage in adequate physical activity to boost your immunity.
The above is the advice for this issue. I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
