Hi,

I understand your concern.

Fever with 102 ° F max temperature is usually caused by a viral infection. Sometimes, it might last for 10 days or less.

However, complications like otitis (ear infection) might happen. I advise to check your ears. If no ear infection, no throat or lung infection; then, it is virus.
It might need a few more days to totally recover.

Stay well hydrated. Take multivitamin supplement to strengthen your immunity. Eat healthy.

Wish fast recovery.
