No viral fever lasts for more than 1 months. She has to be evaluated thoroughly now. Without a proper history and examination, it is difficult to diagnose at this stage
Next Steps
In case she has Liver disorder, she can not be given any dose of Paracetamol

Blood reports are normal. Have to rule out the cause for fever. May need to take Dengu H1n1 and Malaria tests.
Is there throat pain, aggrevates at night??
More history needed for prompt treatment suggessions.
Next Steps
Dengu H1N1, Vidal for typhoid and Malaria smear tests should be done to rule out the cause for fever.
