Talk to General Practitioner on Coronavirus Suspect
Asking for Self, Female, 19 years old, Sir Syed Town North Karachi
I am a medical student so I went to abbasi Shaheed hospital karachi on Tuesday and Wednesday. When I cam back home I felt fever and my whole body was aching. And on Thursday there were low grade fever and joint pain. I had loose stool on Thursday as well. But now it's fine. And there is only fever and muscle pain for more than 4 days. It's not going. What should I do now? Is it because of Corona or something else. Note than I don't have any respiratory symptoms. Just low grade fever, joint pain and GI is slightly disturbed not very much. Pls suggest me what should I do now?

Well if you dont have any flu, cough and breathing problem just relax ur self, (viral fevers are usually high grade with rigors and chills) , moreover if u didnt have any contact with suspected corona patient or anyone with flu than nothing to worry, Take symptomatic treatment panadol and start antibiotic (cefixime 400mg OD for 5days) if fever doesnt settle along with enterogemina amp BD for 3 days...
for how many days have you low grade fever ? and according to your hx it's not coronavirus...but you should need to take vit c or cac 1000 to maintain the immunity . because these virus more vulnerable to attack low immunity and if person have co morbids
Dear have you checked your temp with thermometer?? Symptoms of corona include high grad fever i-e 102 and server body aches plus dry cough and other respiratory symptoms.i dont think that your symptoms coincide with covide, even then you should do your test and try to avoid social contacts till reports. Also try to take paracetamol for fever and do your base line investigations too
increase water intake
take tab panadol sos
Salam.
Incubation period for coronavirus is 7-14 days and it is very less likely that your symptoms are due to Corona.
So keep calm and stay at home and follow hygiene practices.
Just take fluids rich in salt and glucose(Shakanjbeen) ..Take Panadol for body aches.
Get well soon

strt taking food rich in vit c
drink plenty of water
wash ur hand after outside exposure
and cover ur face with mask
Only take panadol for painTake good sleep and rest If u develop any respiratory symptoms then get yourself tested for Corona.
hello dear.
first of all the symptoms of Corona are not always respiratory, it might have other symptoms like gut upset.
2ndly keep monitoring your fever and get isolate at home for a week. u have already passed 1week.
meanwhile drink plenty of water , take tablet paracetamol tds if fever goes more than 100.
take ors as loose stools might cause electrolytes imbalance which leads to muscle pain too.
stay safe,
not every illness is corona
Being a healthcare professional or a medical student we are always exposed, so we have to wear PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) I e. face mask, gloves, gowns/scrubs whenever in hospital.
Secondly Corona cannot be ruled out entirely on the basis of these symptoms, as diseases don't read book and the main purpose of lockdown is to isolate asymptomatic persons cuz symptomatic will try to seek medical advice and can be identified but ones without symptoms are difficult to find and they spread the disease to masses.
Now, What u have to do is isolate yourself in home for 14 days as self quarantine, during the period of 2 wks, take symptomatic treatment that is any analgesic or antipyretic, U can take Tb Arinac or Tb Calpol, get steam inhalation and use immunity booster fruits (those containing vit C), Drink adequate water and fresh juice, avoid outside food.
No need to worry or take stress.
Prevention is the only way for it.
Stay home, Stay safe
Please keep yourself hydrated, and have a healthy diet. If you are not self isolating/staying home, Get your bloods tested for a complete CBC to check any infection causing fever HB, Vit B12 and D deficiency. Try taking Panadol for the fever, Cofcol is great as works for both colds, fever and aches. Meanwhile stay at home for another week and only call your doctor if you develop sever emergency symptoms like shortness of breath etc.
Its not coronavirus symptoms it happened because of that weather swings in these days you should take rest and take green tea, ginger tea, milk with 1 tea spoon honey and multivitamin tablets etc etc nothing to worry.
u need detail evaluation.. book an appointment for further management and work up
It's not a corona symptoms you just take fruits and healthy diet to boost up your immune system and also go for morning walk, take deep breath, take penalty of water inshaAllah you will be better in 1 to 2 days
