I'm really worried about my son because he's got a high viral fever that goes between 101 and 104. We're already doing sponging when his fever hits 103 and following the medicine schedule our pediatrician suggested, which seems to help lower the fever a bit. But someone mentioned it might be a good idea to keep him in an air-conditioned room with the temperature set to around 24-25 degrees. Do you think it's safe or advisable to use the AC when he's dealing with a viral fever?

I'm feeling really concerned about my 3-year-old son after getting his ultrasound results. It says his liver is mildly enlarged but has normal echotexture, with no focal lesion or dilation of intrahepatic biliary channels, and the portal vein and CBD are normal. He seems to have weak stamina and gets tired really quickly. What steps should I take to help him get better or should I be more worried about these symptoms?
