Thanks for posting your query .
Frequent fever and a high crp could most probably be suggestive of a insidious infection or a inflammatory disorder however further diagnosis needs a thorough detailed clinical history , examination and investigation .
Yes your doctor has suggested appropriately to undergo the stool routine and culture test if the child is having loose motions .
Also considering his crp is 43 which is indicative of infection or inflammation , he might require a course of antibiotics ( azithromycin or ofloxacin or cephalosporin since there is family history of penicillin allergy) depending on his clinical evaluation.
Fevago is an antipyretic ( like paracetamol ) acetaminophen which will control his fever.
Other treatment recommended in such case would be probiotics ( like enterogermina etc) and multivitamin and zinc supplements ( zinconia , becozinc etc) .
Please do not worry , such condition can be readily treated once the diagnosis is confirmed.
Hope I have answered your query.
Kindly accept my answer in case there are no further queries.
Wishing your child a speedy recovery.
