Question 1

Is it normal for a 4 year old to have high temperature and shake every now and then after having her tooth filled?

Accepted Answer

Probably viral, and totally unrelated to filling, unless tooth is infected. High fever and shaking ire disturbing. See both Dentist and Physician to try to determine cause of infection and appropriate treatment. Keep her hydrated and try to bring down the fever.

Question 2

Is 103.7 temperature bad for a 4 year old?

Accepted Answer

This temperature is a sign of either a viral or bacterial infection. It is particularly bad if it does not respond to tylenol (acetaminophen) and ibuprofen. It is important that the child drinks lots of fluids and be seen emergently if he cannot or the temperature will not come down. Call his or her doctor if they are mire ill appearing.

Question 3

What's the fastest way to bring down a 4 year old child's temperature?

Accepted Answer

Fever is part of the body's defense. It makes it more difficult for the germ/virus to win the battle. Thus the fever goes when the "battle" is won. If the temp goes unusually high, e.g. 105, tepid sponging of the whole body helps without causing trouble. We now know that aspirin, given to a child sometijmes gives rise to complications that are worse than the uri/flu etc.

Question 4

My 4 year old daughter has a high temperature. what do i do?

Accepted Answer

Any fever is expected to increase heart rate by about 10 bpm/degree/F and breathing by 5 bpm. If she has a fever producing illness, this is expected. Fever reducing medications may be comforting. If the kid is failing to take fluids enough to pee at least every 8 hours she should be evaluated.

Question 5

Hi, my 4 year old has a persistent high temperature. she is on an antibiotic and we are using panado and empeped but it has not dropped below 38?

Accepted Answer

It is good that baby has been seen. I suspect an infection was found but you did not note it. Antibiotics, if they work, will take time to influence the fever. Fever meds seldom take more than a degree off the top of any fever. If the fever exceeds 39 after 3-4 days it is time to have the doc re-check.

Question 6

My 4 year old has a temperature of 102.5 vomits, tummy hurts medicine isn't helping what should i do?

Accepted Answer

A temperature of 102.5 is too high. This child has some kind of infection and needs to be seen as soon as possible. If you can not get in to see your doctor right away please take the child to an emergency department or to an urgent care.

Question 7

What must i do when 4 year old has temperature of 38.5 and his eyes are red?

Accepted Answer

Your actions are up to you. Such low grade fevers are common to many self healing viruses but this may be a prelude to something requiring treatment. The eyes are a common entry point for some viruses but may also be the location of an emerging local infection with drainage. If the kid eats/drinks/plays normally I would just monitor. If this stops consider a visit.

Question 8

Accepted Answer

Call your pediatrician for advice... She may be able to be treated over the phone or she may need to be examined.

Question 9

My 4 year old daughter has loose bowels the last 2 days what can this be from (runs) shes not eating much no temperature but has is very flemy. any sug?

Accepted Answer

The average 4yo will have 2-3 diarrhea illnesses/yr form a variety of intestinal viruses.  These are often acquired at day care or other community settings & brought home on contaminated fingers. They can start with or without fever & may or may not include vomiting. They will generally self heal if the kid can stay hydrated & things like apple sauce & fresh bananas often help them firm their poo.

Question 10

My 4 year old is complaining about his tummy, his temperature is 38.5 degrees. what do i do, what can i get over the counter for him?

Accepted Answer

For minor illnesses like a cold, fever and aches go away by themselves. Most people use over-the-counter drugs like Tylenol (acetaminophen) for relief of such symptoms. For example, if a strep throat bacterial infection, antibiotics are given. If viral stomach flu, antibiotics aren't needed. A doctor can evaluate to give a diagnosis, especially if a person has more than minor, temporary fever.
