What Causes Pain While Moving Eyes After Fever?
A few days ago, I was ill with fever, body aches, headache. I wasn't overly nauseous. After 24 hours, symptoms seemed to subside for a day. Low grade fever kicked in again for another 36 hours with headache and mild body ache. Now I'm left with no other symptom other that it hurts to move my eyes very far in any direction. Is this eye pain just due to the infection I'm still trying to fight off?

Fever affects the nerves and muscles of body.So the longer it is it will affect the other parts of body like eyes and will cause pain while moving the eyes in extreme gazes.Usually it recovers once the body is completely recovered from fever.But if the symptoms are still there even after the body had recovered completely then better to consult a doctor because there can be irritation of nerves related to eyes which are not recovering and get the check up done and avoid any kind of complications
