Patient's question:
I have a cold and a fever of 38 degrees. I took cold medicine and the fever went down. Later these past few days, I've been feeling cold, but it's been around 36.5 degrees. At night, it rises to a high of 37.1 degrees. These days, I've been feeling cold. The test results show HGB 85, HCT 32.4, MCV 76.1, MCH 19.9, and MCHC 262.Doctor's answer:
A cold can cause recurring symptoms such as headaches, body aches, nasal congestion, and runny nose. Currently, your temperature is normal. If the symptoms are severe, you can take ibuprofen orally to relieve them. You are currently experiencing moderate iron deficiency anemia. It is recommended that you pay attention to keeping warm and get more rest. Additionally, you can take compound paracetamol and amantadine tablets or Lianhua Qingwen capsules to alleviate symptoms. At the same time, you should actively treat the anemia.
