Patient's question:
Our friend not only has tuberculosis but also meningitis. Due to these two illnesses, he is feeling very uncomfortable, always having a fever. Although the temperature is not particularly high, he feels quite painful. What should be done about the high fever with tuberculosis and meningitis?Doctor's answer:
Frequent high fever indicates the presence of inflammation in the body, suggesting the need to consider broad-spectrum antibiotics and actively implement anti-inflammatory treatment. The course of treatment should last at least around a week. Drink plenty of warm water, eat more fresh vegetables, and supplement with vitamins. Avoid consuming spicy, irritating, and internally heating foods. A combined treatment approach of traditional Chinese and Western medicine can be adopted for symptomatic treatment, with follow-up check-ups as needed.
