[|Human|] My son has fever since last saturday. Last sunday I took him to the doctor who said he had engine and so gave antibiotics and paracetamol. But the fever still goes on. He has red eyes and had up to 103.4 fever. I took him to a per, he did some blood test to see if this was mononucleosis, the test came negative. He says this might be a virus, added that he might have infection in the blood. He still hes fever. When I give him ibuprofen and paracetamol the fever goes down. I am really worried. The doctor wants to do some more tests. How long a fever can go on like this in a viral disease?
[|AI|]  Hellos per your description I would explain this situation as a probable case of Viral fever; if so, it usually takes a 7-10 days to recover. No other medicines but Paracetamol is the best choice. If Your treating doctor suspect an infection in the blood, then a Blood culture test to be done to rule out the probability. Allow rest, plenty of water and visit a physician for further evaluation and management. Thank you.
