A member asked:

I am covid positive and 8 / 9 days of very high temperature taking panado every 4 hours. how much longer will this temp persist. should i be concerned now and go to a doctor. ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See doctor: High fever for 8-9 days warrants an evaluation by a doctor. See one at your earliest. Make sure to drink enough water to stay hydrated. If you develop breathing difficulty, go to the nearest hospital immediately. Wish you good health!

Good day, please advise me. Last week I tested positive for covid-19 and went through the Doctor's advice. Now he cleared me and my partner as we have served the 14 days but now said there is no need for retesting which makes me uneasy on the matter.
