Hi....by what youwquote it looks like recurrent viral illness. If your kid is normal in between fever episodes in a single day...I don't think you should worry. Danger signs include breathlessness/ rash/ low urine output/ seizures/ unconsciousness/ blood in motion. Don't worry if these are not there & the kid is active.
