He gave antibiotics and painkillers and hero's condition progressed means now his swelling decreased after 3 days of medication his fever came 103.6 °C AND at home it was normal. Actually hero is very uncomfortable with car and we were stuck in traffic for 1 hours so his temp increased within car as I was holding.his blood test r normal and he's playing ..

Your question got cut off - there are limited characters. However, I can try to give you a little information based on what I can read. I would not regard a temperature taken during or right after a car ride as this could raise the temperature from anxiety. Continue on all the medications given to you by your vet as s/he prescribed. I am glad that he seems to feel better! If there was a further question, feel free to post again. Hope that helps!
