Any fever which lasts for 3-4 days is a huge drain on your weight and your strength. The good part is that when you recover from fever you regain your energy. So no cause for concern.

With just 3 kgs of weight loss, there's nothing to worry about. It happens after periods of illness. Eat nutritious food, add fruits to your diet, exercise regularly, can take multivitamin supplements to improve your immunity and regain strength.

It is usual to lose some weight following illness. Provided your symptoms have all subsided and bloods are normal, high protein diet with gentle exercise should help build muscle and regain weight.
