Suggest Medication For Fever,pale Skin And Dark Circles Under Eye

Good evening, my daughter is 4 years old and for the past two days has had a fever from 99-102, difficult to get to stay awake, complaining of being tired and not being herself, pale skin and dark circles under her eyes. This all started the day after she finished biaxin for an ear infection.

Hello,

By what you say I feel that this could be a simple viral illness. 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 a viral illness and it doesn't require antibiotics at all.

Once the viral fever comes it will there for 4-7 days. So do not worry about the duration if the kid is active.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
