Have a periductal mastitis causing high fever .(99.9-103.6) can't afford to see a doctor, how can i treat it at home.

Virtual visit: If this diagnosis is correct then you will need antibiotics. Breast infections are not that common in 22 year olds unless you are breastfeeding. If you can not see a doctor in person consider doing a Virtual visit with a doctor in your state on Healthtap now.
