Hi

Greetings from HealthcareMagic!

It can be viral fever or UTI malaria. they can be confirmed by investigation. Till such time, control fever with tab Crocin . If still not controlled then head bath and body sponging can be done. Complete all investigation and then only know the cause of fever once confirmed then treatment can be recommended.


Take Care!
