Fever: It may not be necessary. He may be incubating roseola where he may have a fever for three days , the fever breaks and he breaks out in a harmless rash. If however, fever is accompanied by vomiting or extreme fussiness or you are concerned, then take him to the er for evaluation and treatment.
