Suggest Remedy For Fever

My 6 year old son has now had a fever for 5 nights. It hasn't been hire than 101.4. He is fine in the morning but gets sleepy in tje afternoon and fever returns. No other aches but has a little cough. He sweated alot 2 nights ago and we gave him Motrin once per night for the first 3 nights. Any ideas what it could be? It is Saturday night so we can't go to doctor tomorrow. Thanks!

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe, it appears to be the viral fever, urinary tract infection, or some other infection.
I advise you to consult a pediatrician for diagnosis and treatment .
He may need to have some tests of blood and urine are to be done.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms, ofloxacin, paracetamol. till the diagnosis is established.
Give him easily digestible foods like bread, milk, and fruits.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
