Patient's question:
Doctor, I've been having recurring colds and fever these days, with temperatures fluctuating between 37.2-37.5, sometimes as high as 37.7. I haven't taken any medicine. Today, I went to the school clinic, and the doctor said it might not be because I haven't taken medicine. He advised me to go to the hospital for a check-up, as there might be inflammation in my body. I've had colds before and didn't take medicine much either. I'd like to ask if this is serious and what tests I need to take at the hospital.Doctor's answer:
I'm very happy to help you solve your doubts. Considering the situation you mentioned, it is acceptable to take Cephalexin and Pu'di Lan Anti-inflammatory Tablets for respiratory infections. Generally, it is still cautious to use antibiotics for mild infections.Suggestions: Rest more, stay active, be careful of colds, wear more clothes, and pay attention to keeping warm. If the condition does not improve after treatment, it is still best to go to the hospital.
