101/102 continues fever from 6 days
My son is 11 months old and having fever since last 6 days, we admitted him in hospital and blood and urine tests are done.doctor saying it could be UTI/blood infection, culture reports are not yet received. So they started giving monocef antibiotic tratment today but I didn't see any change in my son's fever, he is playing when fever reduces and becoming weak when temperature rise, is this common in children under 1 year? I am very worried can someone please help me with what could be the recovery time needed for him
