Hello,
Your son symptoms seem to be related to a viral infection.
I suggest giving him Tylenol for the fever.
I also recommend giving him liquids and rest.
If the symptoms continue for more than 2 days, I recommend consulting a pediatrician for prescription medications.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
