Hi Dear Welcome to the Chat Doctor, Probably child is suffering with some viral infection leading to such symptoms. Plenty of water with adequate nutrition should be taken care of. Tap water sponging will help lot in relieving the fever. Paracetamol @ 15 mg per kg 4 to 6 hourly to be used for the fever and backache, Hope the query is answered. Thanks
