Hi, thank you for posting.
I have gone through your query and I understand your concerns.
His symptoms are caused by fever complications.
To check his condition you need the following tests:
1. Physical examination by a pediatrician.
2. Complete blood count.
3. Urine test.
In the most common cases, this condition is treated by antibiotic medicines. However, the results of the above tests will help your doctor in determining the correct treatment.
I hope this answer is helpful to you.
All the best.
