Fever is a symptom of an underlying disease. There are many causes of fever such as malaria, typhoid, infectious mononucleosis, TB, Dengue etc. paracetamol is an anti – pyretic and it brings down fever.
Advice
1. Azithral 500 mg daily per oral for 3 days
2. Crocin 500 mg per oral if fever occurs
3. Cold water sponging if fever is more than 100 degree Farenheight
4. Investigations – CBC, ESR, Widal test, blood smear for malarial parasite, dengue NS1 antigen, test for chikungunya
Consult a doctor with reports if fever is not relieved by above measures.
