Hi and thank you so much for this query.

If this leg pain is localized to a particular part of this leg, I will suggest that you use tylenol to control his fever and pains. However, if it is a localized pain, it may signal an infection that requires specific management and this would neccesitate that you get your son consulted by a pediatrician.

I hope this helps. I wish your son well. Thank you so much for using our services.
