What Causes Intermittent Fever That Prolongs For 45 Days?
My son,3 yr old is suffering from intermittent fever, for the past 45 days. Had lymph nodes around neck, fever during day time (around 100), sweats while having fever. Clinical examinations- alright, Mantox test- negative, diagonised as primary complex. Is this right?
