Is High Fever Related To Infected Cyst On Spine?

my daughter has a fever of 103 right now and it was 99-101 for the last two days. I am worried because she was seen in the emergency room for an infected cyst near her spine last week and was given two antibiotics and benadril. Could this be connected to her infection

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the history of previous infection then febrile condition could be due to this, but it will be differentiated with the routine blood test if the total count is high then it must be infection, in absence of high total count condition required differential diagnosis, hope this information helps.
I find this answer helpful
