Paracetamol to be used with recommended doses of 15 mg per kg 4 to 6 hourly to get the desired.
Muscle cramps to be treated with plenty of electrolytes and fluids.
Fever to be investigated in terms of CBC, ESR, CRP, TYPHI DOT TEST,URINE EXAMINATION, Dengue serology to rule out any infection.
Plenty of Oral rehydration solution to be used. now days ready made ORs is available in liquid for with the chemists.

Hope the query is answered.
