What are the symptoms of rheumatic fever?

Patient's question:

Lately, I've been constantly catching colds and having a runny nose, and I also feel internal dry heat. I took some cold medicine, but it wasn't very effective, so I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up. The doctor told me I had rheumatic fever. Hello, what are the symptoms of rheumatic fever?

Doctor's answer:

If it is confirmed that there is rheumatic fever, it is recommended to first use antipyretic and analgesic drugs to relieve the symptoms of fever. It is also advisable to use some hormone drugs as needed. If there is a second-degree neural chain infection of streptococcus, penicillin-like drugs can be used simultaneously, as these two types of drugs have excellent efficacy in treating rheumatic fever caused by streptococcal infection. Treating for two courses can effectively control the symptoms.
