Hi my son and i have had a fever for the last two days and we have been very sleepy and just exhausted. My son is only four i will be taking him to the doctors tommorrow but just a little worried i have just picked him up from daycare he is asleep already and not eating or drinking as he normally does, he is also complaining of sore legs.

Hi,
Thanks for writing to health care magic.
Monitor him for danger signs like poor feeding, vomiting , lethargy etc.
Since he has some of the danger signs I suggest you should take him to the doctor at the earliest.
Does he have any other problem like cough, burning urination or sore throat?
Continue to ask further queries.
Hope this helps.
Take care.
