Should I consult a doctor as the fever is back or is it normal with the flu?

Question

My son has had the flu since last Friday. He had a fever on Saturday with a sore throat and headache. Tested negative for covid. Since Wednesday he seemed to be better but now he has a sore throat, headache and fever again. For the moment we do the Sinus rinse and motrin every 6 hours

Hello ma'am, I'm sorry to read about her troubles! If the fever has not been present for 72 hours or more, or if his general condition remains good, it is recommended to monitor the situation for now. Have you tried anything for his symptoms? Thank you for the information. You did well with these steps, you can use the Sinus Rinse as often as needed during the day and at least 30 minutes before bedtime, and encourage your child to drink plenty of fluids. I will be available if you have any further questions! Sincerely, Tom Samaha, Pharmacist
