Fever & Infection Check
Does your fever keep coming back?
Does your fever keep coming back? Are you feeling hot one moment, then cold and shivery, with body aches and little energy?
When a fever isn’t settling, it’s hard to know what to do next. This check includes three blood tests—CBC, CRP and ESR—and a consultation with a Marham doctor. The doctor looks at your results alongside your symptoms and tells you whether you need another test or treatment.
These tests do not show exactly what is causing the fever. They also cannot tell on their own whether you need an antibiotic. That decision needs a doctor.
If you have trouble breathing, confusion or a stiff neck with your fever, get urgent medical care instead of waiting for a home sample. Feel sharp. Stay sharp.
کیا بخار بار بار آ رہا ہے؟ کبھی بہت گرمی لگتی ہے اور پھر سردی یا کپکپی محسوس ہوتی ہے؟ ساتھ جسم درد اور کمزوری بھی ہے؟
جب بخار ٹھیک نہ ہو تو سمجھ نہیں آتا کہ آگے کیا کریں۔ اس چیک میں CBC، CRP اور ESR کے تین خون کے ٹیسٹ اور مرہم کے ڈاکٹر سے مشورہ شامل ہے۔ ڈاکٹر رپورٹ کو آپ کی علامات کے ساتھ دیکھ کر بتاتا ہے کہ مزید ٹیسٹ یا علاج کی ضرورت ہے یا نہیں۔
یہ ٹیسٹ اکیلے بخار کی وجہ یا اینٹی بائیوٹک کی ضرورت نہیں بتاتے۔ اگر سانس لینے میں مشکل ہو، ذہنی الجھن ہو یا گردن اکڑ جائے تو گھر پر نمونے کا انتظار کرنے کے بجائے فوراً طبی مدد لیں۔ Feel sharp. Stay sharp.

What’s tested, and why
Complete Blood Examination (CBC)
CRP (High Sensitivity)
About this testESR (Erythrocytes Sedimentation Rate)
General Physician consultation, included — Online or In Clinic Consultation
Our team calls to arrange it once your reports are ready.
Three tests from one blood sample, no fasting needed, plus the doctor who decides what they mean.
- Complete Blood Examination (CBC): counts your white cells and shows which type is raised, the first clue to a bacterial infection against a viral one. It also reports platelets, which fall in dengue, and haemoglobin, so a long fever with anaemia does not get missed.
- CRP (High Sensitivity): the fast marker. It climbs within hours of a bacterial infection taking hold and falls again quickly once it is treated, which makes it the most useful single number in a fever that is only a few days old.
- ESR (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate): the slow marker. It rises later and stays up longer, so read beside CRP it tells your doctor whether this started this week or has been going on quietly for much longer.
- General Physician consultation, included: a Marham doctor reads all three together and tells you whether an antibiotic is warranted, what to watch for, and when to come back. Take it online or at a clinic, whichever suits you, and for a fever many people prefer to be seen in person. It is part of the package, not an add on.
If the pattern points somewhere specific, your doctor orders that test then, charged only if you need it: typhoid, dengue NS1, malarial parasite, a urine test, or a chest x ray.
Feel Sharp. Stay Sharp.
The doctor tells you which result explains how you feel, what to take, and when to test again so you know the treatment has worked.
If everything is normal, that is useful too: it rules out the commonest causes and moves the conversation to the next question, such as sleep, blood sugar or mood.
Not just a report. An answer.
Before your test
- Go to a hospital now, do not wait for a home blood test, if there is very high fever with confusion or drowsiness, difficulty breathing, a stiff neck, a rash that does not fade when pressed, bleeding from the nose or gums, severe vomiting or no urine for many hours, or if the patient is a baby. This check is for a fever you are managing at home, not for an emergency.
- No fasting needed. Eat and drink as normal, and keep drinking water; a dehydrated patient is harder to draw blood from.
- Best taken while the fever is still present or within a day of it settling. CRP falls quickly once an infection starts clearing, so a late sample can read reassuringly low.
- If you have already started an antibiotic, say so. White cells and CRP drop within a day or two of the first dose, and the report can then look normal even though the infection is real. Your doctor needs to know before reading it.
- Mention steroids, anti inflammatory painkillers and paracetamol taken in the last 24 hours, along with any recent vaccination, since all of them shift these numbers.
- Women: mention if you are pregnant or currently on your period. ESR runs higher in both.
- Not for children under 12.
- Have the patient's name and age ready, plus the date the fever started and the highest temperature you have recorded. Have a phone in a quiet place for an online consultation, or your preferred clinic if you would rather be seen in person.
- One out of range value confirms nothing on its own, and none of these three tests names the germ. Your doctor reads the full report with you and decides what comes next.
Questions people ask
بخار کتنے دن رہے تو ٹیسٹ کروانا چاہیے؟
عام وائرل بخار دو سے تین دن میں خود اترنا شروع ہو جاتا ہے۔ اگر بخار تین دن سے زیادہ رہے، اترنے کے بعد دوبارہ چڑھ جائے، شام کو تیز ہو، یا ساتھ میں شدید کمزوری، جسم درد اور سردی لگنے کی کیفیت ہو تو خون کا ٹیسٹ کروا لینا چاہیے۔ اسی طرح اگر بخار کے ساتھ سانس لینے میں دشواری، غنودگی، جِلد پر ایسے دانے جو دبانے سے غائب نہ ہوں، یا خون آنے کی شکایت ہو تو ٹیسٹ کا انتظار نہ کریں، فوراً ہسپتال جائیں۔ بخار کے بارے میں تفصیل یہاں پڑھیں: بخار
کیا اس چیک اپ میں ٹائیفائیڈ اور ڈینگی کا ٹیسٹ شامل ہے؟
نہیں، اور اس کی ایک وجہ ہے۔ اس پیکج میں CBC، CRP اور ESR شامل ہیں جو پہلے یہ بتاتے ہیں کہ انفیکشن بیکٹیریا کا ہے یا وائرس کا اور جسم پر اس کا اثر کتنا ہے۔ ٹائیفائیڈ، ڈینگی اور ملیریا کے اپنے الگ مخصوص ٹیسٹ ہوتے ہیں اور یہ سب ایک ساتھ کروانے کی ضرورت شاذ و نادر ہی ہوتی ہے۔ رپورٹ دیکھنے کے بعد ڈاکٹر بتاتا ہے کہ کون سا مخصوص ٹیسٹ درکار ہے اور صرف وہی کروایا جاتا ہے، جس سے غیر ضروری خرچ بچ جاتا ہے۔ مزید پڑھیں: ٹائیفائیڈ اور ڈینگی
Will this tell me whether I actually need an antibiotic?
میری رپورٹ میں CRP یا ESR زیادہ آیا ہے، اس کا کیا مطلب ہے؟
Can I just book the CRP test on its own for less?
