Hi My wife has been suffering from very high fever for last five days 104F.We are consulting with a general physician.He has done Dengue,Malaria and typhoid test.All results are negative.doctor has suggested to take dolo 650 when fever is up.Whenever she is having dolo within 2 hrs fever is coming down but again after 5 to 6 hrs she is getting shiverring and fever again.so my question is this temp normal in viral fever if yes then how long it could take normally to come back to normal life.
Hello wife is having high grade fever (104) and whenever she takes solo 650 mg (paracetamol) , fever subsides. As she tested for malaria, dengue, typhoid and all are negative, so such type of fever with chills, may be due to these reasons >1 Viral, as it will usually take 5-7 days with mild cough .2 Urinary tract infection may be the next reason of such fever. Diagnosis can be confirmed by urine culture examination.3 Jaundice is another such cause of fever. Diagnosis can be confirmed by HBase for hepatitis A, B C E. In my opinion wait for another 2-3 days and till give her solo as whenever require. However, beside this also consult another doctor for 2nd opinion as physical examination also find out other reason of fever. Good luck.
