### input:
13 year old son been running a fever & has a cough since last week Tuesday making it a total of a week today. He does not state is having trouble breathing. Took him to ER on Friday this past week Dr. stated lungs sounded clear said did not need a chest Xray ears looked good as did throat was advised to just medicate for fever. Took my son in to Drs office today because I was worried since Monday night had fever of 103. At Drs office temperature was 99.5 i was told same thing lungs sound clear ears fine throat fine & to keep medicating if fever consist. Came home & again had fever of 101.3 which I gave him ibuprophen. Im really concerned not knowing exactly what going on being that he is having these fevers & to my understanding fever means infection what do you suggest I do next? Should I take him for a 3rd opinion since he was seen by Physicians Assistant & not his actual pediatrition or can this be viral & just let run its course?

Greetings from Chat Doctor. Thanks for posting your query.  Fever indicates Infection, either bacterial or Viral. It needs to be differentiated as treatment is different for both.  She requires certain blood tests like Complete Hologram, IGM Ty phi dot, Smear for Malaria, SEPT, SGOT, Urine routine and Throat swab culture sensitivity. With the results of these tests we will get an idea of what is causing fever.  Till then continue giving him Ibuprofen. Ask him to do salt water gargling. Avoid oily food, non veg food and citrus fruits.  Kindly get these tests and revert with reports.
