Hi, The history you have given is suggestive of a viral illness. In any viral illness there can be generalized body pain during or following fever.  You can give paracetamol which works well for both fever and body pains and an anti-ulcer medication such as lansoprazole, may help in abdominal pain. Also give plenty of oral fluids to keep him well HY Chat Doctor.  If fever persisting for more than 5 days or any rash or being lethargic, then I would advise you to visit pediatrician immediately. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care
