Recurring Fever for past 2 weeks.
I have been having recurring fever every evening for the past 2 weeks. The maximum temperature of the fever goes upto 38.4 Celsius and the fever goes off once it reaches that level on its own without any medication.
I took blood test and urine test. Doctor informed me that it is because of some viral infection and no need for any medication.

I would advice you to have antipyretics and antacids. These following steps could be of help:
- Avoid cold food and water, preferably have hot food and water
- Don't skip meals have a liquid diet containing soups and progressively increase to solid diet as per how you can tolerate.
- Have food rich in vitamin C such as oranges to help build immunity.
- Drink plenty of fluids, drink 3 liters of water per day
- Maintain good personal hygiene(Wash you hands regularly)
- Rest plenty, body heals while at rest
If the condition persists or worsens visit nearest ER at earliest
