Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of headache and fever with a history of bacteremia which could be due to impaired immunity of your body and due to viral infection of body. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to boost your immunity by taking multivitamins and diet rich in vitamin A. You should take NSAID medication along with antiviral medications such as Acyclovir. You should take plenty of fluids. Try to divide your meals in small fractions rather than having bulk at a time. Visit general pediatrician once and get it examined. Go for blood tests as well. Start treatment after proper diagnosis. Avoid taking any sharp and oily food substances. You should take soft and bland food. You should take fresh juices in diet.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
