Common causes of fever are viral infections, especially when mouth has red lesions as mentioned.
Keeping temperature under control with paracetamol and frequently feeding both liquids and solids is important.
Mouth lesions can be painful and so apply oral gels( e.g Zytee oral gel) before feeds.
Next Steps
if very high or frequent spikes ( above 102) and/or dullness when not febrile needs urgent medical attention.
