Hello madam, glad that you trust healthcare magic.Low grade fever since when. If its longterm, then of course needs to be evaluated.Hope he got all baseline blood routine examination done comprising of Complete blood count.If accompanied by cough or any difficulty in breathing, pl get a chest X-ray too.If all these done, and normal, could be viral fever/ flu.
