Hi and thanks for the query,
I think he needs to be carefully checked preferably by a pediatrician. It is imperative to checked his hydration status to exclude dehydration, formerly exclude any infection other than viral, any electrolyte imbalance, blood shortage or electrolyte imbalance. A complete blood count and C reactive protein measurements, coupled with the clinical review, in my opinion are the most important initial steps. Kind regards
