My son is having fever intermittently

2018-07-21 18:57:24
My son is having fever intermittently for last one week. Got the test done but malaria, dengue and typhoid were ruled out. What may be the reason for having fever continuing for so long. Shall we go for some other test. There are no other major symptoms. Vomits occasionally when there is high fever.
