What causes constant fever, body aches and burning sensation in the eyes?
Patient: my 8 yr old child has a fever since yesterday afternoon when he first complained of a head ache I gave him Ibuprofen and after 3hrs his fever had was at 102 then i proceeded to give him Tylenol and alternate between Tylenol and Ibuprofen every 3 hrs. 6 hrs between each dose of Tylenol and 6 hrs between each dose of Ibuprofen. He has been crying off and on. This morning he complained of body aches that would come and go in different places arms legs big toe it seemed. Now he is saying his eyes burn. I m not sure what to do. Doctor: Thanks for consulting at Healthcare Magic.Fever, headache, burning eyes, body aches etc. probably suggest your child is suffering from viral infection.Give Paracetamol 15mg/kg 6 hourly, Cold sponging, If fever not controlled add Ibuprofen 10mg/kg 8 hourly, Give juices, oral fluids to maintain hydration.Consult pediatrician if no relief.
