A member asked:
4 month old has rectal fever of 100 for three days. he has a mild cold. is this why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not a fever: Fever is defined as temp 100.4 or higher. The 100* temperature elevation in a 4 month old can be due to an upper respiratory infection, teething, response to vaccination or lots of other things. Hydration, humidifier, acetaminophen, bulb suctioning nasal secretions, and frozen teething rings can all be helpful,
