How Can Fever Along With Headache And Sore Throat Be Treated?
My fourteen year old daughter has a temp of 102.5 headache, sore throat, and aches. This developed within the last 24 hours. We are thinking the flu- Should we take her to the doctor now or wait until morning.She does not want to go now, would rather rest.
Hi Thanks for the query to H C M . Since fever and all other symptoms are just for 24 hours , so need not to be in panic . Such symptoms may be due to virus infection ( flu type ) . Only PARACETAMOL 10 mg / kg body weight for 3-4 times in day is sufficient . If fever high coldmassage also help . Hope this will be useful for you. Good luck.
