Hi,
It seems that you are allergic to paracetamol and your body reacts to it like that. Take the other options of NSAID for fever and do cold sponging. Let the medical personnel know that you are allergic to paracetamol, whenever you happen to visit a hospital so that no one accidentally dispenses it to you, thus inviting anaphylaxis.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
