Fever is a symptom of an underlying disease. There are many causes of fever such as malaria, typhoid, infectious mononucleosis, TB, Dengue etc. Advice 1. Continue Taxim as advised 2. Paracetamol 500 mg per oral if fever occurs 3. Cold water sponging if fever is more than 100 degree Farenheight 4. Investigations – CBC and Widal test If fever is not relieved by above measure then go to hospital for further management. I hope this information will help you. I will be happy if you ask another question Thanks
