Fever is there since 5 days. Please visit your nearest pediatrician and get the required blood tests done. Once that's done we can come to the conclusion as to whether it's bacterial or viral and then give medications accordingly. Please meet the doctor immediately.

Your baby will need to undergo investigations since the fever is persistent since 7 days.
Even if it is a viral infection, it is not to be taken lightly, especially since your baby is so young
