Hello,
Welcome to HCM and thank you for the query.
Your son has an undiagnosed infection which is not responding satisfactorily to the empirical antibiotic you have given.
You should take him to a doctor who will examine him and run tests to diagnose the infection and treat him well.
Wish your son a quick recovery.
