My son aged about 17 years is suffering from fever from past 12 days. It started with headache and leg pain and the legs and hands were cold before the onset of fever and one more thing is that it is increasing, as on day one it was 98.8, then 100.6, yesterday it was 100.4 and today it is 102.1…
First day I gave crocin pain reliever, and yesterday I gave Dolo 650 every six hours, the fever is not decreasing and today it is 102.1 and he also has tiredness. Can anyone tell me what might be the reason for this type of fever?

Got typhoid test, it is negative
Got malaria test, it is negative
Got Weil Felix test, it is negative
From yesterday night started Advent 1 gm , two doses are over, one at night and one in morning, and according to fever chart, the fever is not coming under control and it is increasing

Fever from past 12 days is a thing which should be thoroughly investigated for PUO.
Actually in person examination is required. As some investigations may not be conclusive in first week they may need to be repeated. Meanwhile only giving DOLO would not help.
When was the typhoid test done and by what method?
Widal titres come positive in second week.
Next Steps
