Patient: i had undergone fnac liver biopsy test three days back. i m having pain in my shoulders, headache,possibly on right side . i m having tooth ache and joint pain and fever. joints in my wrest,knee and ankle is paining more.i m taking 250 mg paracetamol for fever. after the test they didnt made me to remain in observation and they didnt check my BP . few days before they took blood test to know my blood clotting time etc. after the biopsy i came home and now i m suffering from fever and full body pain. is this because of the side effects of the biopsy or something else? please answer my question and make me to comfort to come out of my fear like anything. i will give my handfull of thanks to u if i get an answer. Doctor: HIIt's possible that you've developed an infection in your liver after the biopsy so you need to see a doctor right away for an ultrasound of the liver and a course of antibiotics
