Sometimes when we catch a cold, it blocks our nose, and we lose our sense of smell. This is called "anosmia." Don’t worry—your sense of smell should return as you recover. Be patient, drink plenty of fluids, and get enough rest.

Why Do I Have Persistent Fever Symptoms?

Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 15th Oct '24
A low-grade fever involves feeling feverish without significantly elevated body temperature. Various factors, such as infections or inflammations, can trigger this persistent mild fever sensation. Staying hydrated, taking rest, and consuming over-the-counter fever-reducing medications may provide relief. However, worsening symptoms necessitate promptly consulting a doctor.

Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 14th Oct '24
If someone has had a high fever since Sunday night, even after taking Dolo 650, it’s a good idea to get it checked. High fevers are usually linked to viral infections like the flu or bacterial infections. Make sure he stays hydrated and give him a lukewarm sponge bath. It's important to consult a general physician to rule out any serious conditions.

Tetanus can take place if bacteria invade the injured area. Even if you took it a bit late, it's not too late to fix that. Symptoms such as muscle stiffness and spasms may show up. Don't forget to look for this. Now that you've got the vaccination, you're safe. Keep an eye on your wound and if you notice something strange or feel sick, it's a good idea to call your doctor.

Took 50 vitamin C, zinc pills, am I safe?
I took 50 pills ( vitamin C and zinc tablets) at once nothing happened I'm I in danger
Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 13th Oct '24
Taking 50 pills of vitamin C and zinc all at once can be dangerous! It may induce tummy pain, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Too much zinc in your body can also be bad for you. Don't waste any time. Seek medical assistance without hesitation. Water drinking may be useful in getting rid of leftover vitamins and minerals. Your body needs time for healing.

I Have Fever 90 degree. Can i eat peracitamol 1165mg+caffeine 50mg together two time a day
Shreya Sanas
Member of team ClinicSpots.
Answered on 11th Oct '24
Fever can be a sign that your body is fighting off an infection like a cold or flu. Taking paracetamol with caffeine can help to bring down the fever and reduce the discomfort. It's okay to consume 1165mg of paracetamol accompanied by 50mg of caffeine, twice a day. Do not go beyond this dosage. Take a rest, drink ample fluids, and check your temperature regularly. If your fever goes on or gets worse, call for medical help.

Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 10th Oct '24
The cause of these symptoms is stress on the body, and consequently, the missed period. This occurs since your body is still on its way to getting back to normal. You should obviously take care of your health, eat right, drink enough water, and sleep enough. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it's important to seek medical advice.

Should I Be Concerned About Weight Loss?
My father got viral infection last month and lost 8 kgs weight...fever lasted for only 3 days and then after leg pain and swelling happened ...and suffered from constipation so dctr gave milk of magnesia to cure constipation...now constipation got relieved...is weight loss okay or we need to check with dct?
Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 8th Oct '24
It's good that your father's constipation is better now. However, losing weight after a viral infection is expected as the body manages to defend against the infection. Mucous membrane pain and swelling might be due to the inflammation response of the body to the virus. Since the constipation is better and the fever is gone, it's okay. If the weight loss persists or if any new symptoms develop, see your doctor.

Can I treat infected IV sores at home?
My husband is an IV user and his left arm has a bunch of open sores and it's swollen and appears to be infected. 3 days ago he started to get b head aches but he refuses to see a doctor. Is there anything at home I can do for him
Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 7th Oct '24
Your husband's arm is in a bad state. The open sores and swelling could be a sign of an infection. If he's also experiencing headaches, things could get worse. Infections can be spread quickly! At home, you can help by cleaning the sores gently with warm water and soap, then covering them with band-aids. But he should see a doctor as soon as possible because infections can be dangerous.

Can I treat 100° fever with meds?
I am Manish, 20 years old. I have high fever (100°) and mild headache since yesterday. Please recommend some medications.
Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 6th Oct '24
A mild headache and a high fever of 100°F can indicate a cold or the flu, which are caused by viruses. I suggest you take acetaminophen to reduce the fever and the headache. Furthermore, it is important not only to rest but also to drink sufficient amounts of fluids and eat light and nutritious foods. Keep in mind that if your conditions worsen, visit a doctor.
