I'm dealing with a really bad chest block and cough, and I just can't shake this cold. It's been three days now, and I haven't been able to sleep at all. I really need some quick relief so I can breathe easier and finally get a good night's rest. What can I do to feel better?

View allI'm dealing with a fever that comes and goes. Whenever I take antibiotics, it disappears, but then I experience sweating and feel back to normal except for being really exhausted. This has been happening for about 30 hours now. Do you have any idea what's going on? Should I be worried?
There are many conditions which present with fever...underlying cause for fever should be diagnosed first dont use antibiotic without prescribed by doctor

I've been having a constant fever between 99 and 101 for the last 15 days. I feel pretty normal most of the time, but when it gets closer to 101, I just get really sleepy. I did a blood test, and it showed my hemoglobin is a bit low, but the platelet count is normal. I also tested negative for malaria, and my SPG report is fine. I've already taken two 5-day courses of antibiotics as prescribed by the doctor, but the fever is still there. There's no other problem, but I'm really curious about why this is happening. Any ideas?

I'm wondering if paracetamol is just for treating fevers, or can it help with colds as well? Are there other benefits to taking it? Would love to get some guidance on this.
Paracetamol (also known as acetaminophen) is a versatile medication that not only helps reduce fever but also relieves headache, toothache, muscle aches, and menstrual cramps, while also alleviating cold and flu symptoms, making it a commonly used over-the-counter medication for various pain and discomfort conditions.
