Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe it appears to be some chronic infection, like tuberculosis etc.The other causes may be the hyper hyperthyroidism, hypertension etc.Evening rise of temperature confirms T.B.
I advise you to consult a physician for diagnosis and treatment.
He may need to have M.R.I and other tests for confirmation.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms ranitidine and paracetamol till the diagnosis is established.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
