Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor, Fever for so long can be a prolonged viral fever which needs no specific treatment especially if no focus of infection anywhere. However, because fever is persistent for so long your child needs to investigated properly before coming down for any conclusion. There are many other possibilities in such scenario like typhoid, urinary tract infection, malaria etc. So I would suggest you consult a good pediatrician and get evaluation done properly. Wish your child a good health. Take care.
