Fever started 1 week after femor neck surgery. Elevated levels of ESR (above 100)and CPR(above 23). Doctor rules out osteomyelitis. Put on ant biotics by GP. Fever has not come down substantially after 3 weeks of treatment.Chill and fever starts in the afternoon after lunch and continues throught night. Doctor asking us to wait and continue. Surgical wound healed completely. No pain at the site of surgery. Pl advice what kind of infection is possible and the desired names of antibiotics.

Hello, Vyjayanthi! How are you doing?
This person really needs to be seen by a doctor again and have more medical work ups done to get to the root of the problem.
There are things other than infections that can cause elevation of ESR and CPR. They are commonly elevated in people with some forms of arthritis.
Is there anything else I can help with?
