Is there anything serious ....???
Understanding your concern. As per your query your son have symptoms of high fever which could be due to urinary tract infection either bacterial/viral infection of body. It is due to poor and compromised immunity of body. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to do tepid sponging for immediate relief as you having high degree fever. You should take diet rich in healthy food such as green leafy vegetables. Avoid oily and sharp food. Drink plenty of fluids. You should take proper antibiotic course in combination with Ibuprofen/ Acetaminophen. Visit pediatrician once and get it examined. You should get routine blood test done and start treatment after proper diagnosis. Normally viral fever take one week duration to get recovered.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
