95.9 to 99.5 : A normal temperature reading for a child when taken by mouth is 98.6 degrees f, though this measurement can range from 95.9 to 99.5 degrees f in different kids. Kids with temperatures consistently out of this range can be in danger and should see a physician.

Question 3

how many days of high fever is safe for children?

Accepted Answer

Think differently: Generally it's not the temperature that harms the child it's the cause. It doesn't hurt to have a doctor examine any child with a fever, even one day's worth. A child can't tell you what's wrong you have to look yourself. Better to go to the doctor and be told, don't worry it's just a cold, than to blow off the temp and find out later it was something serious.

Question 8

what is considered high fever on a one year old?

Accepted Answer

100.4 F = 38 C: Check out http://www.Aafp.Org/afp/2007/0615/p1805.Html. We tolerate higher temperatures in older children who don't appear "toxic". But younger children bear more involved evaluation since their immune systems aren't mature & they haven't received complete set of vaccinations. However, even healthy appearing children w/102.2 f = 39 c need further evaluation. Btw these temperatures are rectal.
