A member asked:

When should a two year old be taken to the doctor for a fever?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Comfort/ observation: The average 2yo with fever ; cough has a mild self limited illness. Comfort meds/fluids/ simple digestible foods and a preservation of normal routine will help keep things as simple ; allow recovery of minor pbs. If you observe a decline in activity/fluid intake etc a call to the service is in order. Fixed fever over 102 for more than 12 hours is usually a sign a visit may be needed.
