What is the reason for the child's fever lasting for 5 days?

These days, my boss said I'm not in good spirits and it's affecting my work performance. Actually, I didn't mean to, either. I always can't sleep at night, sometimes feel my heart racing and feel uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. What should I do if my child has a fever for 5 days without breaking?
