A member asked:
My 9 mo old has a fever of 100.5, what should i do to help it go away? she doesn't seem sick in any way..? her chest is very hot.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nothing/tylenol: A fever of 100.5f is not very high in a 9 month old. If he/she doesn't seem sick you don't need to give any treatment. The fever itself does no harm to the baby. If the temp. Was higher and the baby was acting sick you could give tylenol (acetaminophen) 10-15 mg per kg. By mouth. If the baby remained ill you should call your doctor or advice nurse.
