Hi
Fever for past 3 months need detailed evaluation and investigation. What are associated problems along with fever like headache, vomiting, irritability, vision problem, any ear discharge, pain during passing urine, blood in stool, any cough or difficulty in breathing, any history of heart disease , animal contact, joint pain , any swelling, etc anything can be related to fever. Not only WBC other relevant investigations based on detailed history will be needed. You keep a written temperature record of few days to know the pattern and meet pediatrician.
