My 6 years old boy started with fever 10 days ago with fever, slight cough and body pain. Consulted doctor after 2 days when he was reading 102�F. As advised gave Meftal-P. Fever didn't subside. Next day did thorough blood and urine tests including for Malaria, dengue and Typhoid. All negative except for bacterial infection was at 25k count. As advised continued Mephtal-P Antibiotic (Taxim-O) for 5 days. Fever came down to normal but with cough. After the antibiotic is over fever again rose to 101�F and then normal. It's been 3 days and still fever sometimes goes to 101�F and then normal. My Kid is weak. He is now on Calpol and Multivitamin (Bevon). He been absent from school since 10 days. Please tell me why the fever (symptom) is not completely gone? What should we do now? If it is normal then how many more days will he has to suffer like this? What could have been the precautionary measures we could have taken to avoid such high bacterial infection? Thanks for considering my question.

Some times it's difficult to pinpoint what went wrong or what exactly is the problem even after doing some tests. The human immune system is complex to understand. You need to follow up with the doctor. You can give your child a nutritious diet. May be you can tell him to adopt a very healthy attitude - and make him understand the importance of being healthy and fit .Once he is recovered completely, he can begin some physical activity. So invest time in exercise. Some outdoor sports, yoga etc can really boost the immune system. Also avoid or restrict the junk food to once in a month. Avoid soda (cold drinks - may be restrict it to once in a month!). Have plenty of vegetables, fruits, seeds and nuts in the diet. Healthy eating habit plays a major role in enhancing the immune system and one can avoid all kinds of diseases in the future.
