Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query your son have symptoms of intermittent fever which could be due to bacterial/ viral infection and due to underlying medical condition. It could be due to poor immunity of body. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to take diet rich in multivitamins, fruits and take multivitamin tablet as well to boost body immunity. Drink plenty of water to rehydrate yourself. You should take combination of Ibuprofen and Tylenol as it is safe combination and you can take that for your present condition. As fever is of high grade at times so you should do tepid sponging as well. You should give proper rest to child.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
