[|Human|] My 12 year old grandson has suddenly developed a temp of 100.3 and has bee n cold about 4 hours so he took a shower. He then became very lethargic and is shivering or trembling. He has body aches and especially in his legs. I gave him 2 Tylenol and a sip of coke. My concern he flew on a flight from Houston to Nashville yesterday .
[|AI|]  Hi...this looks like a viral illness, and it is fine for kids of this age to do air travel even with fever. Nothing to worry.Apart from the query you raised, I am just telling you about viral illness - 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 -
