Febrile illness refers to any condition marked by the presence of fever, which is often a sign of an underlying infection or inflammatory process. It may be acute, as seen in viral or bacterial infections, or part of a more complex and chronic disease. Dr. Shipra Gulati, MBBS, DNB, MD (Medicine), is highly skilled in identifying and managing febrile illnesses, offering comprehensive evaluation and targeted treatment to ensure accurate diagnosis and rapid recovery.

Fever can present with a variety of associated symptoms such as chills, body aches, headache, fatigue, cough, rashes, sore throat, or gastrointestinal discomfort. Dr. Gulati takes a detailed history, including travel, exposure, and pre-existing conditions, and conducts a thorough clinical examination to narrow down potential causes. Diagnostic investigations may include blood tests, urine analysis, chest X-ray, or other imaging, depending on the clinical scenario.

Infections like dengue, typhoid, malaria, urinary tract infections, and viral fevers are commonly seen causes of febrile illness in India. Dr. Gulati ensures prompt treatment using evidence-based protocols, including antipyretics, antibiotics, antivirals, or supportive care as needed. In cases of prolonged or undiagnosed fever (pyrexia of unknown origin), she adopts a systematic approach to uncover rare or hidden causes, ensuring no aspect is overlooked.

With her empathetic and methodical approach, Dr. Shipra Gulati offers patients relief from discomfort while addressing the root cause of the fever. Her commitment to accurate diagnosis, timely intervention, and compassionate care makes her a trusted physician for all types of febrile illnesses.
