Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Fever is a sign of inflammation that could be anywhere in the body, since he doesn't have any other symptoms then this may only be due to teething and inflammation of gums due to teeth eruption. For fever give him acetaminophen or ibuprofen syrup every 8 hours and if he develops other symptoms then see a doctor.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Salah Saad Shoman
