How long is to long for an 18 month to run a fever?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

How is child?: If the child is active, playful, eating well and minimal other symptoms, you can wait up to a week before you need to push to investigate more. There are associated symptoms such as decrease in activity, pain, cough, vomiting or poor appetite, unknown rashes, etc, then the child needs to be evaluated and re-evaluated sooner. I note cough ; difficulty breathing mentioned - need to be seen again now.
