Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
After going through the baby's urine analysis report, all other parameters are normal except for the presence of moderate amount of bacteria.
It indicates urinary tract infection and hence baby is having fever.
Kindly consult Pediatrician at the earliest for the management of this condition.
Best wishes for its speedy recovery.
