Suggest Treatment For Fever , Chest Congestion And Chills
Adult male has fever, shaking chills and then very tight chest with congestion. After not improving in four weeks, he is put on two lots of antibiotics but still not getting better. Then put on Cefotaxime and seemed to improve but then developed an erythematous rash on lower back, chest and neck. Discontinued antibiotics after one lot but rash seems to be worsening. Doctor didn t seem to worry but am concerned about what to do and what it is. Any answers?
You could have a had a allergic reaction to the antibiotic or it could be a part of the disease per se. Hopefully you have undergone a chest x ray and blood tests.
