Cough, high temp and headache in 12 yo dd

My 12 yo dd has been unwell since yesterday morning. She is really hot and calpol is only bringing her temp down for a short while, the headache has been almost constant, above her eyes and on the top of her head. She also has a cough and very little appetite. I've been making sure she has plenty of fluids.

I'm due at work in just over an hour and am quite worried about her, she is totally miserable. Does this sound like a virus and does anyone have any ideas on how I can lower her temp.

Tia.

It does sound viral so I would actually recommend probs not going to work (depending on what u do) but a cold towel on her head no reduce temp and cold fluids.
