Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Thank you for your question. Severe fever with no associated symptoms like cold/cough/loose stools can be due to viral infection. For this it is best to give as prescribed paracetamol Chat Doctor.  If your son has associated symptoms of cold/cough and temperature is not coming down you can discuss with your pediatrician regarding antibiotics. I hope this answers your query. Good luck. With best regards,
