[|Human|] It is currently 1 am. I just checked my 10 year old son s temp. it is 103. I have put a cold compress on his forehead. When he went to bed about 5 hours ago, I had given him a dose of Children s Nyquil, and a single Bayer low dose asprin. Is there anything else I should be doing?
[|AI|]  Hi, Fever of a 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. Paracetamol can be given only if fever is more than 100 F. I suggest not using combination medicines for fever, especially with Paracetamol. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
