Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am 25 years old Male. I am currently taking in medications for my hypertension but now i am having fever 39.5 last night with headaches specifically at the back of my head (checked my BP its 117/77) , muscle aches, lower back pains, chills and also my eyes would hurt as well and there are times that my lower right body will hurt but only lasted a few seconds. My fever right now went down at 37 because i am drinking paracetamol however i still have the muscle pain and headaches... Please help me understand what im going through
As you are suffering from high grade fever with chills and body-ache it is pointing mostly towards Malaria so first of all I will advice you to do CBC with MP to rule out the diagnosis. If malaria is negative than it is viral fever nothing more than that. Treatment for the same is tab cefixime 200 mg or tab cefadroxyl 500 mg twice daily after meals with tab akilos-p or tab nimeson-p twice daily after meals for fever and body-ache with cap pantop-dsr or cap rabson-dsr twice daily empty stomach. You can do a course of chloroquine 250 mg base 4 tab stat than 2 tab after 6-8 hours than 2 tab stat once daily for next 2 consecutive days after meals preferably with milk. If feeling weak you can take some multivitamin like syrup zincovit or syrup multicherry 2 tsf twice daily.
