Hi,
Welcome to HCM,
Having 4-6 pus cells in urine examine is not of much significance.
As your son is having high temperature, it requires evaluation.
But as higher antibiotic is started, wait for 2-3 days and see the result.
If there is no improvement then go for other investigations.
Give plenty of water and light diet.
Ok and bye.
