That's fine. Nothing to worry about
Viral respiratory infection fever not getting better.22M, 5'10, 157 lbs, no drug use, no known health conditions or allergies. I got sick early in the morning on January 7th around 1 AM or so. Instantly got hit with fever, cough, sore throat, headache. Jan 9th I developed severe ear pain and pressure as well as ringing and echoing. NP looked and said it was an ear infection and prescribed amoxicillin. On January 7th my fever peaked at around 101.5-102. I took Tylenol to reduce it and it worked well. On the days after that my fever fluctuates from around 99.5 F to 100.5-101 F. It hasn't gone down from there. Doctor's office didn't detect fever today but they were using a forehead thermometer. At home my thermometer once again showed 99.5 which has now increased to 101 in the evening. My oxygen levels, HR, and BP were all fine. I cough a lot with mucus and sometimes it hurts but nothing crazy. Should I be worried? How long does fever typically last and when should I seek out help? I took a covid test today and should be getting results tomorrow as well.
