Dear Doctor My son is 7.8 yrs. He has fever from last 4 days. We consulted doctor he said viral fever since no symptoms related to dry cough, headache. When we check using 3 to 4 Thermometer it varies between 98.6-99.6f. Doctor pls suggest 1)since the fever is now  more than 4 days now. 2) secondly he body is continuously hot but the temperature is between 98.6-99.6. 3) He is active as per daily activities. Why the head especially to hot.
