Infectious Diseases Specialist, Dr. Arun's Response
Hello dear,
Thank you for your contact to health care magic.
I read and understand your concern.
I am Dr Arun Tank answering your concern.
It looks like unknown viral infection.
The treatment therapy for the current situation is right.
Please maintian good hydration of the baby.
Antibiotic prescribed to the baby is a prophylactic treatment and should be continued. If fever comes again you should give paracetamol to down the fever immediately.
Viral unknown fever has short duration of illness period. So with in the week period this fever and infection will disappear. Till that time please continue your current treatment.
I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/DrArun.
Thank you, Dr Arun Tank Infectious diseases specialist, HCM
