Suggest Treatment For Severe Fever And Body Pain
I am running a slight fever, (100.3 to 101.5) really ache all over and cannot stay awake. Yesterday I slept from 10:30 til 2:00 and from 3:30 til 5:00 and went to bed at 9:00 and slept until 7:30. Today was not as bad but still slept 3 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the afternoon. Any suggestions

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Fever may occur in response to any type of infection.
Additional symptoms would be needed to determine the type of infection present.
Viral infections such as the cold or flu are common.
At this point since the source of the fever is not clear, the main aspect of treatment would be rest, cool/cold fluids and paracetamol or ibuprofen.
I hope this helps
