Hello,
As per your history, it may be due to viral infection.
For further assessment he may require complete hemogram, urine analysis, blood culture sensitivity after pediatrician consultation.
For fever you can give syp acetaminophen.
Further treatment mainly depends upon the underlying condition and investigation.
Keep him hydrated. Watch for symptoms like high grade fever, dehydration.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
