[|Human|] My 5 year old daughter went swimming 4days ago(Sunday)in our condominium pool..she swim for about less than 20 mins and the water was really cold. The next day afternoon she got mild fever until today and she is feeling pain on her chest part. Do i need to worry and bring her to the hospital now?
[|AI|]  Hi...looks like a viral illness. I will explain to you how a viral illness behaves so that you can be more confident. 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. Paracetamol can be given in the dose of 15 mg/kg/dose (maximum ceiling dose of 500 mg) every 4-6th hourly that too only if fever is more than 100F. I suggest not using combination medicines for fever, especially with Paracetamol. Regards -
