HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern and looking to the history given here I could say that if this is post operative symptoms of fever then in my opinion such symptom would be treated with antibiotic if not taken immediately after the operation, with antipyretic medicine hope this information helps you, take care and have a nice day.
I find this answer helpful
