Question 5

my child is 3 years of age and is having high fevers the past 4 days and now isnt drunking fluids she also has been complaining of a sore mouth

Accepted Answer

Common problem: If your daughter has reached the point she is not taking enough fluids to wet every 6 hours it is time to have her  evaluated. This could be a simple virus or strep, but dehydration would be my first worry. Chilled fluids, frozen apple sauce, popsicle pieces, etc can often help with the dry or sore mouth or throat but watch the hydration.
