It felt little comforting in the evening but fever reappeared in the night and I lost appetite and could not eat due feeling like vomiting...l kept on talking paracetamol and went to doctor next morning. He did not write anything but for supra sin and a tonic for constipation which was also one among my problem. He also suggested blood test which showed nothing serious.

Hello

Welcome to HCM

Its my pleasure to help you..

According to your history,Most probably you are suffering from viral fever.
Blood reports are normal according to your doctor.

If such patient comes to my clinic I usually examine him properly for other dangerous signs and prescribe him/her anti fever medications and will ask for follow up after 2 days.If no improvement then advice her/him blood investigations.

some viral fever may last for 5-7 days.

I advice you to

1.continue your paracetamol 8 hourly

2.plenty of water and rest

3.For mild cough and sore throat just saline gargles are enough.

Visit your nearby physician for further treatment and management.

Thank You

Regards,
Dr.Om
