Hi,
Having intermittent fever since long require some investigations to know the reason of having temperature.
Consult your pediatrician.
If I was your treating doctor, I will go for,
1, X-ray chest,
2, Complete blood checking like TC, DC, ESR.
4, Montoux test.
5, urine test, routine and microscopic.
After all investigations we can have proper diagnosisi and plan of treatment can be decided.
Ok and take care.
