Hello! After five days of fever and administrating both paracetamol and ibuprofen according to instructions, but the fever is persistent above 38°C please go back to KKH A&E and explain specifically that fever medication had no impact. If ur child is still small (infant/toddler) usually they will push to be warded even after IV paracetamol (rarely given for babies) for observation if fever continues to be high! However it seems older kids may be sent home if stablised.
