Patient's question:
Recurring fever with a sore throat and unstable temperature, sometimes as high as 38.5°C after an hour or so, then dropping to around 37.5°C.Current Treatment and Effects:
Currently receiving IV fluids with unstable temperature, sometimes feverish and sometimes not. Blood tests have shown occasional viral infections and high white blood cell counts. Chest X-rays and cardiac enzymes tests were normal.
Desired Assistance:
What should be done at this stage? Should I go to the outpatient clinic for IV fluids while feverish, or should I seek medical attention while still feverish?
Doctor's answer:
The condition you mentioned is a manifestation of inflammation, which is the result of the body being infected by pathogens. Common pathogens include bacteria, viruses, mycoplasma, etc. Based on the fusion test results, a comprehensive evaluation is made to speculate on medication. Effective treatment should be implemented under the guidance of a doctor, while also increasing fluid intake, getting more rest, enhancing nutrition through diet, preventing cold exposure, appropriately increasing clothing, reducing various adverse impacts, and preventing recurrent infections to recover as soon as possible.
