How high is the fever? Is it accompanied by chills and rigor? Is the cough accompanied by expectoration? Are you having diarrhoea or pain during micturition too?
What medication did you take? If you took antibiotics, your leucocyte levels might be normal even with symptoms.
You should undergo TLC, DC.
Malaria and dengue should be ruled out too with MP ICT, DENGUE NS1 respectively.
Next Steps
Do consult a doctor before undergoing extensive investigations.
Health Tips
Indiscriminate use of antibiotics leads to resistance which is highly undesirable.
