History is suggestive of Fever (low grade) for around 1 week.
There must be an infection causing this.
Most likely a Respiratory Infection.
It's better to examine the child as well to look for signs of dehydration.
Syrup Calpol might help in reducing fever, but it will re-occur.
Would suggest you to Consult Someone properly.
