Specializes in Pediatrics

NOT TEETHING ALONE: Teething does not cause very elevated temps. fussiness and drooling are the normal symptoms But the age that they are teething is also the age when they get minor infections. You could give some tylenol (acetaminophen) and encourage fluids. If the temp rises or he acts sicker, you may want to contact your doctor
