My son has tested positive for Covid, and he's had a fever for a couple of days now. Just trying to understand how many days this fever usually sticks around with Covid, so I know what to expect.

During my COVID experience, my fever lasted for about 3-4 days. It was important to stay hydrated and rest. Gentle breathing exercises helped calm my system. Listen to your body and take care, dear one. The body has its own rhythm for healing.

Ayyo, COVID fever is tricky. For my husband, it was 3 days, for my mother, it was nearly a week. My grandma used to say drink plenty of warm water. But really, keep in touch with your doctor, they will guide you properly. Take care.

Typically, the fever with COVID lasts for 2-5 days, but it can be longer for some. Don't fall for any strange remedies online. Stick to what doctors recommend – paracetamol, rest, and fluids. If fever persists or gets very high, call your doctor. Verified medical advice is key.

When I had COVID, the fever was relentless for about 5 days, and it made me feel so miserable and anxious. It can be really tough emotionally too. Just remember to keep taking your meds and stay hydrated. It will pass, hang in there.

COVID fever? Feels like it lasts forever when you're sweating through the night and can't sleep! Mine was a solid 4 days of feeling like a hot potato. Just keep popping those paracetamols and pray for it to end, haha. And seriously, stay hydrated, it helps.

I had Covid twice. First time, fever was 4 days straight. Second time, it was milder, only 2 days. It really varies, but usually 2-5 days is common. Keep taking paracetamol, hydrate well, and isolate yourself. If it goes beyond 5 days or gets very high, consult your doctor.
