Hello. Thank you for your question. I am sorry your son isn't well. Most illnesses of this type in pediatrics are viral and ultimately resolve on their own. I suspect, considering the headache and stomach ache have resolved, that this is the case. However, if the headache and/or stomach ache return, or the fever persists for another 2-3 days, I recommend consulting with your doctor.
