A temperature that returns after a fever-reducing medicine wears off does not by itself identify the cause. The medicine may reduce discomfort without treating the underlying illness. Record the actual readings, the thermometer method and any associated symptoms rather than repeatedly adding medicines.
Next Steps
Arrange a physician review if the temperature or unwell feeling persists, particularly since this has continued over several days. Rest, maintain fluids and bring details of everything already taken.
Health Tips
Get urgent care for difficulty breathing, confusion, severe headache with neck stiffness, persistent vomiting, dehydration or unusual bleeding. Do not combine several cold or fever products without checking their ingredients with a clinician or pharmacist.

Since the fever has been recurring for several days, please arrange a medical evaluation rather than relying only on Dolo. Seek urgent care if you develop breathing difficulty, confusion, severe headache, persistent vomiting, severe abdominal pain, or marked weakness.

A fever that keeps coming back as the paracetamol wears off, staying around 100 degrees for more than a day, usually means your body is still actively fighting an infection, most often viral at this stage.
Next Steps
Please see a general physician if the fever continues past 3 days or doesn't fully settle between doses, since tests like a CBC may be needed to check for dengue, typhoid, or other causes.
Health Tips
Go in sooner if you develop a rash, severe body ache, persistent vomiting, or your temperature goes over 102 degrees.
