Detailed Answer:
Hello

Thank you for getting back. Fever is a non-specific sign. It can be present in almost every disease. In your case there is possibility that fever is due to resolving phase of previous infection. At the moment we can not confirm it, as there is no other symptom. If i were your treating doctor then i would have advised following things:

- Acetaminophen one after every 6hr till fever settles.
- Take healthy & balanced daily diet. Eat fresh fruits & vegetables. Try to avoid junky, oily & food from outside. Preffer to eat home cooked meal.

Hopefully fever will settle without any further management BUT if it persists then we can go with further workup. At this moment you need not to worry and continue with your normal daily routine.

Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help if not then don't forget to close the discussion and rate it.
Wishing you good health !!
