Suggest Treatment For Fever With Body Aches
I am 22 year old female and have been suffering from fever since yesterday, the fever dropped in the afternoon today however has again resumed. It dropped till 99 and its now again 101 F. There is body ache but no specific pain areas. No vomiting, no headache, the waist seems to hurt more than the others, I have been taking Paracetamol. Please advise.

Hi
Two days of fever can be some simple fever
If it still persists after 3 days with similar spikes,you can go for the blood tests like complete haemogram & urine routine to check for any pus cells in the urine & the white blood cell count to confirm with bacterial or viral infection.
Keep your self hydrated properly,with plenty of juices.
Please continue with paracetamol until then.
All the best
Take care.
