Paracetamol inducing fever?
I got a pretty bad migraine day before yesterday, probably due to sleep deprivation. Since the only painkiller I had on hand was paracetamol, I took one and fell asleep. Since then though, I've had a slight fever on and off. I also feel very lethargic.
Just to repeat, I had absolutely no fever before taking the paracetamol, only a migraine from the past 2 days which I get often anyway.
So is it possible that paracetamol is not suiting me or something?

Paracetamol is not the proper drug for migraine. Need to take other painkillers. Consult for further treatment.

It’s mainly due to migraine and it’s aura and post migraine symptom not by paracetamol
Avoid these thing to prevent migraine-:-:
Stress. Stress at work or home can cause migraines.
Sensory stimuli. Bright lights and sun glare can induce migraines, as can loud sounds. Strong smells — including perfume, paint thinner, secondhand smoke and others — trigger migraines in some people.
Sleep changes. Missing sleep, getting too much sleep or jet lag can trigger migraines in some people.
Physical factors. Intense physical exertion, including sexual activity, might provoke migraines.
Weather changes. A change of weather or barometric pressure can prompt a migraine.
Medications. Oral contraceptives and vasodilators, such as nitroglycerin, can aggravate migraines.
Foods. Aged cheeses and salty and processed foods might trigger migraines. So might skipping meals or fasting.
Food additives. These include the sweetener aspartame and the preservative monosodium glutamate (MSG), found in many foods.
Next Steps
Take migraine preventive measure and treatment
