Long term low fever, headache, dizziness

Condition analysis:
A fever is typically a sign that the body is fighting infection. A fever is typically considered "low grade" if it is between 99.9 and 101 degrees Fahrenheit. However, fever in children and particularly infants should be watched carefully. A newborn with a temperature of 101 degrees Fahrenheit needs emergency medical attention.

When you have a viral infection like the flu, your body diverts white blood cells to fight the infection. Those white blood cells are normally assigned to keep your joints and muscles in optimal working order. When they get called away, you develop body aches. Unfortunately, if you have the flu, you are probably contagious. Most adults become contagious a day before symptoms start and remain contagious for up to seven days. Children sometimes are contagious for longer periods.

Instructions:
Here’s what you can do to feel better:
-- Rest and drink plenty of fluids.
-- You can also place a cold, damp washcloth on your forehead or the back of your neck while you’re resting. And you can try some other tricks to help you bring down your fever.
-- Call a doctor if your fever is accompanied by a severe headache, stiff neck, shortness of breath, or other unusual signs or symptoms.
-- To treat your fever associated with cold or flu (or other symptoms like a cough, sore throat, headache, and minor aches and pains), you can take over-the-counter medications such as NyQuil or DayQuil, which temporarily relieve common cold and flu symptoms, including fever.
