Brief Answer:
Your kid's weight is excellent

Detailed Answer:
Hi.... this is not suggestive of liver problem. Your kid's weight gain is excellent. Moreover CRP is negative....so be comfortable.

I will explain you how a viral infection behaves, so that you can be more comfortable.

Fever of few days without any localizing signs could as well a viral illness. Usually rather than fever, what is more important is the activity of the child, in between 2 fever episodes on the same day. If the kid is active and playing around when there is no fever, it is probably viral illness and it doesn't require antibiotics at all. Once viral fever comes it will there for 4-7 days. So do not worry about duration if the kid is active.
