A fever is a signal, not a diagnosis. The useful work is finding the source, checking how unwell the person is, and deciding whether tests, treatment at home, or hospital care is the right next step.

After the visit
You will leave with written instructions: medicines, doses, warning signs and a follow-up date. If a test is pending, the clinic will explain who will review it and when. Bring the reports to the follow-up visit.
