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 cold massage also help .
Hope this will be useful for you.
Good luck.
