Hello,
Fever of 9th day needs investigating. It might still be viral if the kid is well when the kid's activity is good when there is no fever. But definitely needs to work up and doctors visit.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Sumanth Amperayani
