Pediatrician 's  Response
Brief answer:
Needs investigations like CBC, Malarial antigen test, Typhoid Igm, Blood culture to make diagnosis.

Detailed answer:
Hi, welcome to HCM.
I see similar cases in my clinic everyday.
Your child has fever which is persisting even when the child is on antibiotics.
I suggest you to do some investigations like complete blood count, malarial antigen test, typhidot Igm and blood culture to rule out malaria, typhoid and infection.
Further treatment will depend on above reports, please revert back with above reports.
I hope this will help you.
Wishing your child good health.
If you have any further questions, i will be happy to help.
Take care.
