How to take care of a 6.5-year-old boy with complaints of fever, headaches, restlessness, and shivers during sleep?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com. I read your query and understand your concern.

Please check the temperature of the child with a thermometer. The restlessness, headache, and shivering might be due to the start of a fever. If the fever is below 100 degrees Fahrenheit, there is nothing to worry about. I suggest you only provide warmth to the child. If the fever is between 100 degrees Fahrenheit to 102 degrees Fahrenheit, I suggest you give him Crocin DS (Paracetamol) two teaspoons. If the fever is more than 102 degrees Fahrenheit, I suggest you give Ibugesic plus syrup (Ibuprofen and Paracetamol) two teaspoons. If the fever is 103 degrees Fahrenheit or more, I suggest you get the child evaluated physically by a pediatrician, and also, blood tests would be advisable based on physical examination.

Thank you.
