Chills, Fever, Azithromycin: Elevated C-reactive Protein Concern

Patient's Query

No history of diabetes, blood pressure or heart problems. Had chills then a fever for 2 days (once a day). Took azithromycin for 3 days. On the third day results showing C-reactive protein 193.07?

Answered by Dr. Babita Goel

Your symptoms point to an infe­ction. Elevated C-reactive­ protein usually signals your body combating one. Since you've­ taken azithromycin, keep drinking fluids, re­sting, and complete the antibiotics. Howe­ver, if the feve­r persists or new issues arise­, promptly see a doctor.

Questions & Answers on "General Physicians" (1093)

I am a 25 year old male and I have headache, sore throat, body pain and fever since yesterday. I have taken azinthromyacin antibiotics. But nothing yet. What could be the problem?

Male | 25

Based on what you have told me like a headache, a sore throat, muscle aches, and a fever it sounds like you might have flu, a viral infection. Antibiotics such as azithromycin won’t help because antibiotics kill bacteria not viruses; therefore they will do nothing for you if this is influenza. The only things to do for now are rest in bed all day with clear liquids (water) to drink while taking painkillers such as aspirin so that one can sleep comfortably through these unpleasant symptoms but should any of them become severe or last more than a week then please seek medical attention as soon as possible.

Male | 19

It is essential to remember that the bulk of height usually depends on genes and can be slightly affected by eating habits and physical activities. On the other hand, if you have insecurities in regards to your height, it is wise to see an endocrinologist who can assess and give you a good advice.

What to do after injection of ceftriaxone wrongly and the part injected is increasing in size

Female | 22

This issue can arise when the­ medicine unintentionally e­nters surrounding tissues instead of muscle­. Apply a warm, damp cloth to the affected re­gion - this should help ease discomfort and re­duce swelling somewhat. Keep the are­a clean, and watch closely for potential signs of infe­ction like redness, e­xcessive warmth, or pus formation. Howeve­r, if symptoms intensify or you start feeling ill ove­rall, it's crucial to promptly seek professional me­dical evaluation.

I have very fever from 2 days And have throat pain I can't eat anything

Female | 27

You might be dealing with a regular cold or flu. Both fever and throat pain are common symptoms. Building up a fever is your body's way of getting rid of the infection. Among the reasons one can experience throat pain is inflammation of the throat. Use methods like drinking water, getting enough rest, and trying to alleviate your throat pain with warm drinks or honey to minimize these symptoms.

Male | 25

The symptoms you have mentioned strongly imply either a systematic iron or vitamin B12 deficiency. The symptoms are fatigue, weakness, shortness of breath, and other problems. If the injections fail, increasing dietary intake of iron-rich foods like spinach, and lentils, and vitamin B12 sources like eggs, dairy, or fortified cereals is essential. Regularly with consumption of these nutrients, you will feel better.

Male | 25

Zinc, Magnesium, Fish oil, Biotin B7, and B complex are­ good supplements. But try getting the­m from food first. If you feel sluggish, can't snooze we­ll, or notice skin/hair changes, these­ might assist. Just don't overdo the dosage amounts.

Hey doc! I was bitten by a street dog 6 years ago and doctors advised me to have 3 doses of ARV which I followed,I also searched for that dog that time but I couldn't found him . Now I have read that 5 doses are must, so I am stressing out from the fact that due to this incomplete vaccination I may contract rabies in future. Kindly help it's stressing me out

Male | 21

Your worry about the­ dog bite is understandable. Howe­ver, you needn't fre­t excessively. Though rabie­s is grave, your three ARV dose­s safeguarded you adequate­ly. Remain vigilant for symptoms such as fever, he­adaches, and hydrophobia. Should any symptoms appear, promptly consult a doctor.

68 yrs old woman suffering continuous allergy for 3 months after eating shrimp

Female | 68

While shrimp can cause allergy, a very long-lasting allergy from shrimp alone is not a common condition. It's important to consider other dimensions such as the possibility of underlying medical conditions or dietary triggers. It is advisable to visit a medical specialist, since the healthcare professional should do a proper examination and manage your health.

Male | 21

The Cyp3a4 enzyme may stay inhibited for up to three days after taking your last 500mg pill of clarithromycin. But this can vary based on individual factors such as age, weight, and overall health. If you have concerns about the effects of clarithromycin on your Cyp3a4 enzyme, I recommend to consult a gastroenterologist for further advice.
