Brief Answer:
Continue on Advil and add an antibiotic

Detailed Answer:
Dear sir, you should continue on Advil every 8 hours. you are doing right by drinking a lot of water. you should also take a shower to help decrease your body temperature . if the fever continues more than 3 days then you should add an antibiotic as amoxicillin 1 Gm every 12 hours. I hope I answered your question. if you don't have any other clarifications then please close the discussion.
