Suggest treatment for high fever
Patient: Good day! I have a problem that is almost destroying me. I have high temperature for more than 1 week now and it doesn't seem to stop no matter what I do. I tried pills, i've been to hospital, pill through anus but the fever still comes back in a few hours - 37,6 usually. I can't even sleep because of the heat. In that first day I remember I masturbated and immediately after I started to have the fever that is bothering me even today. I had no temperature before I masturbated. Am I infected ? What should I do ? Could it be the urinary system ? Please answer me as I don't know what it is or what should I do. Doctor: Hello,you shouldn't be so worried since you were examined in the hospital. If you had something serious, I'm sure the colleague who examined you, would have told you so. You can take acetaminophen for the discomfort. Do not take it only when you have the fever but on a regular basis (every 4-6 hours) for as long as you feel sick. You haven't given enough data to suggest a possible diagnosis. Most low grade fever cases (like yours) are attributed to viral infections. Fortunately masturbation does not cause fever or our planet would had been a really hot place!I also suggest you consult your doctor for the fever in case you haven't seen signs of improvement already. Since you mentioned no other specific symptoms or signs suggesting any diagnosis would be risky.I hope you get well!
