Suggest medication for fever and chills
Patient: My 4 year old has a fever, chills, swollen glands and cold hands and feet and headache from time to time. Have given her calpol and ibuprofen, temp reduces then for a few hours but glands still making neck hurt. This has started since Friday afternoon. She seems fine in herself after medicine has taken effect but feels bad again when temp starts to rise. Doctor: Hello,A high-grade fever with chills required combination antipyretic to respond to it properly. Give it every six hourly, maintain hydration, and provide rest. Same time plan some test to search for the cause of fever, as a urine test, complete blood count (CBC), malaria after reports appropriate medication can start.Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.Regards,   Dr. Sachin Kumar Agarwal
