My daughter(2 and half old) is not feeling well for past six days.. She s having high temperature, During the morning only. I am taking colpol and sinerst.Also giving bifilac and cepodem as antibiotic. As per dr advice I took platelet counts and maleria test. Maleria is negative, platelet count is 1.6 million. Dr asked another test on Monday(2/1/17). Really confused. What would be the reason for high temperature. Pls suggest.

Pediatrician,  's  Response
hi, high fever for 6 days can be due to typhoid, malarial infection, lower respiratory tract infection urinary tract infection. Since, you have already done malarial test. chances of Malaria infection are ruled out. for other causes, you should do blood test like typhidot IGM, x ray chest to look for chest infection and urine routine microscopy test and urine culture test. Since child is already on antibiotic, the antibiotic needs to be upgraded. based on reports, the antibiotic needs to be changed. review with reports. Take care.
