What Can Cause Accelerating Fever In Kids?

My grandson continually suffers from a high temperature (40C), seemingly it is every 3 or 4 days or so. Our daughter takes him to the hospital where they usually give him a drink of neurophen to bring down the temp, he has had 2 courses of antibiotics in the last 3 months. When he does not have a temp he is highly active and very strong. Everyone says it s normal for a child to get high temperatures, I understand that, but so often? Could it be because he is normally so very active that his temeature rises when he is tired?

Pediatrician 's  Response
Hello,

It is not normal for a child to get frequent high temperatures (fever). Consult your doctor and ask for investigations like CBC, urine exam, Widal test, PS for MP, etc. Your doctor will decide further treatment based on investigation reports.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Khan Shoeb Mohammad Sher Mohammad
