Sir,
Your mum needs to be examined for proper advice. Is blood sugar under control. She may take plenty of water, rest ,check temperature 4 times per day. As a first aid, She can take tab dolo 650 mg 3 times per day for fever/body aches. Does she have any other problems. Get back to me with details for further advice.

Fever in a diabetic will subside only if blood sugar is under control. Paracetamol and cetrizine for fever and a course of antibiotic since we cant take a risk in a diabetic elderly.. will worsen quickly.. better consult and start treatment.
