Brief Answer:
Please take your child to the doctor

Detailed Answer:
Hello

Although your child has shown symptomatic improvement but since the fever has not come down , i would like you to show him to a doctor as soon as possible as we have to find out the cause of the fever.

He may also need some antibiotics and for this you should meet your doctor.

For the time being please ask him to take plenty of fluids and give him p250 for the fever.

Take care
