There are many possibilities...pneumonia could be the cause. It's really hard to tell without going to the doctor, unless you are or someone you know is a Doctor Who can diagnose a child at the spot? I don't know. Another probably cause of uncontrollable fever could be an infection. Of what? It doesn't matter. A small infection can come from a small cut that might not have been treated or just ignored. There are other causes. Best thing to do is contact a physician. Now, I'm not a doctor or a nurse, but I am ASHI (American Safety & Health Institute) certified, as well as OSHA.

A child will get sick if he is not warmly dressed to maintain body temperature. Fever spikes can arise as a result of pneumonia, which may come as a result of exposure to cold.

Can your child get high fever while on antibiotics?

It is possible for a child to get a fever after being on an antibiotic for three days. There are several reasons. A few of those reasons are that the child could be sick with a virus and not a bacteria, in which case the antibiotic would be useless. Another scenario is that the bacteria is resistant to the particular antibiotic and that a different one is needed. In either case, you should follow up with the child's physician.
