What Is The Treatment For High Fever In A Child?
My 7 year old son was sick for the past 2 days with a high fever. I brought him to ER and doc. said it was a virus. Now this is the 4th day his fever is gone, but he is very fatigued and both of his calves hurt extremely bad where it is hard for him to stand up and he is not wanting to try to walk. We have been @ the hospital and clinics so much this month that I am wondering if I should bring him in tonight or make an appt. in clinic tomorrow?

dear parent, this could be due to fibromyalgia or deep vein thrombosis. both are serious conditions and can lead to serious complications . please take him to the hospital to treat accordingly
