Hello! Fever and body aches are commonly caused by viral infections and often improve with rest and proper hydration. Drink plenty of water, soups, or ORS, and get enough rest. For fever or body pain, you may take Paracetamol if suitable for you and as directed on the label. Avoid taking antibiotics or strong painkillers without medical advice. Since the fever has lasted for three days, it is best to consult a doctor to rule out infections such as dengue, malaria, or typhoid, especially if symptoms worsen or new symptoms develop.
