I have a 21 mo old boy, he has been running a low-grade fever for 3 days with no appetite (very rare for him) and no interest in drinking fluids. Normally when he teethes he runs a slight temp that we can control with tylenol and ibuprophen, but it isn t helping and he isn t getting better.
Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor Team. Understanding your concern. As per your query your son symptoms of having low grade fever since 3 days which seems to be because of viral infection. Yes you should be concerned about as it is occurring constantly. Your symptom is because your immunity is lower down because of infection. Need not worry. I would suggest you to take paracetamol to prevent fever and combination of decongestants and multivitamin tablet. You should take diet rich in multivitamins. Your symptoms will resolve in 5-7 days. Avoid touching eyes, nose again and again. If your symptoms keeps on persisting the visit general physician once and get vaccination done. You should get complete examination done and start treatment accordingly. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
