Hello. My baby turned five months old on 19th April. Since the night of 14th April, he had a mild temperature between 99.2 degrees F and 99.8 degrees F. After two days, I consulted his pediatrician, who suggested starting the antibiotic Cepodem 100 syrup. He had a previous history of UTI and was hospitalized at two months old, so the doctor also advised a urine test, which I have attached for reference. Since 20th April, he did not have a fever. However, the day before yesterday, in the morning, his temperature was 99.4 degrees F, which later returned to normal. No fever occurred yesterday, but today morning I observed his temperature rising again. The temperature readings so far are: at 6 am arm 99.2 degrees F, rectum 100.5 degrees F, at 9.30 am forehead 99.3 degrees F, arm 98.7 degrees F, at 10.30 am rectum 99 degrees F, underarm 98.8 degrees F, at 12.15 pm 99.3 degrees F. My question is why is the fever coming again? Could it be due to the hot environment?

Fluctuations in temperature less than 100.5 degrees F may be due to the environment, teething, or minor viral issues. If no other symptoms, monitor.

I have taken multiple antibiotics, and later my urine report showed normal results. However, I still feel like the infection is present. Today, I did another urine routine test and have attached the report. Kindly review it and advise further.

I have been suffering from a urinary infection for the last 4 to 5 days. My blood test report shows a urinary infection, and USG indicates hepatomegaly with a calyceal cyst in the left kidney. Please advise. I have started taking antibiotics. Will this be enough, or should I consult a superspecialist?
