Hi doctor, My son is 7 months old. He has had a fever for 8 days. His body temperature started from 105 degrees Fahrenheit on the first day and now it has gradually reduced to 100 degrees. This is the first time he is having fever. I am giving him Crocin drops and Ceftriaxone. On the first four days, the fever was occurring every four to five hours and now after taking antibiotics, it is once in 10 to 12 hours. But, the fever does not stop. The blood culture and urine culture reports show no growth in 48 hours. Blood report shows some kind of infection, with CRP 75 and now reduced to 55 in two days. I wanted to consult a doctor to understand the problem and possible cause of continuous fever.
Hello. I have gone through the reports and history of your child given by you (attachment removed to protect patient identity). SGPT, SGOT and chest x-ray. More tests may be required as per the condition of the child. 1. Kawasaki disease. 2. Viral infection. 3. Soft tissue sarcoma. Continue the treatment that is going on. Please admit the child and evaluate if the above symptoms I mentioned are present. Revert back with the reports to a paediatrician online.--->
