Hi,
From history it seems that he might be having acute infection in middle ear giving rise generalized bodyache and malaise and loss of appetite.
Consult your doctor and get examined.
He might require one3 course of antibiotic for 3-5 days.
Meanwhile give him ibuprofen for fever, leg pain.
Give him enough water.
Ok and take care.
