From yesterday evening, my son has a fever ranging from 99 to 99.5. He had left hand and right leg pain. He feels hot air blowing out from his nose. He is also tired.
Yesterday, I gave him crocin pain reliever at 10:00 pm... Again now, that is at 10:00 am morning when he checked, he had fever... Please help me with his condition.
