[|Human|] Five year old girl running mid grade fever for three days along with stomach pains and severe headaches. Typically I would not worry about these symptoms however they return once we every month to two months. Every time I take her to the doctors they tell me it s viral and send us home. They say she has a low immune system and that it will get better but it doesn t. It s getting worse. I m so worried and not sure what to do next. Please help me.
[|AI|]  Hi...this looks like viral illness only. Please do not worry. Her immune system is perfect. We need to consider immunodeficiency only if she has got more than 3 pneumonia requiring hospitalization/ bone and joint infections/ unusual skin and soft tissue infections/ brain or CNS infections till now. If nothing like this happened, this is not immunodeficiency....do not worry. Fever of few days without any localizing signs could as well a viral illness. Usually rather than fever, what is more important is the activity of the child, in between 2 fever episodes on the same day. If the kid is active and playing around when there is no fever, it is probably viral illness and it doesn't require antibiotics at all. Once viral fever comes it will there for 4-7 days. So do not worry about duration if the kid is active. Regards -
