Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi,

Thanks for writing to health care magic.
Your child needs to be properly worked up and investigated for this continuous fever of such a long duration.

Depending on the physical examination findings further investigations are to be carried out. Was a blood culture or urine culture ever done? Was a X ray chest , Mantoux, ultrasound abdomen done? If so what are the investigation reports?
Continue to ask further queries as required.
Hope this helps.
Take care.
