Deman and sore throat
Hi Doctor, says lelaki 41 y/o. No travel history in the last 2 months. Developed sore throats symptoms in last 2 week but no fever nor pain. No visit doctor but just took vitamin and drinking more plain water. Yesterday fever came in afternoon. Went to GP for check. Lung clear and given antibiotics, paracetamol and throats medicine. Last 1 weeks, frequent visits to Hospital Columbia Asia Balakong and Hospital Pantai Cheras. Should I worried about my symptoms? When do I need to go for test? Thanks
