Dear Patient,

Medications take time to heal. Viral infections should be waited out with antiallergy and painkillers only for five days at least. With or without medicine high fever reduces in 2-5days. Put alcohol swabs in his underarms this will reduce his fever a lot, give panadol four hourly, and give a bath if needed. Avoid cold, sour and fried foods.
