Patient's question:
Before, I had a sore throat and caught a cold, and now my cold is better, but I still have a little cough. However, there's a problem—I occasionally feel my nose is quite warm, and the air I exhale is also warm. For two or three weeks, my temperature has been between 36.9 and 37.1, sometimes 37.2. What could be going on?Doctor's answer:
These symptoms are all caused by low-grade fever, which is mainly due to infections from bacteria, viruses, mycoplasma, and other pathogens. It is recommended to maintain a suitable indoor temperature and keep the relative humidity between 50% and 60%. At the same time, encourage drinking more water to moisten the respiratory tract. You can have a blood routine test and C-reactive protein test at a regular hospital to confirm the diagnosis and take medication targeting the pathogen. Pay attention to increasing exercise to enhance your resistance. During flu season, avoid going to crowded places.
