Fever from last 4-5 days
My mother has warm body and fever, headache,body pain etc from the last 4-5 days.
I am giving the following medicines to her- Aceclofenac & Paracetamol, Doxycycline & Lactic Acid Bacillus, Zirom 500.
But after she takes the medicine the fever is gone and then next day again it is coming. Please suggest what to do and what test should i go for.
I don't think it's covid-19 because she doesn't have symptoms like breathing difficulty,loss of smell & taste
