Both my kids (ages 5 n 4) keep getting fevers. my son now has a rash also. what do i do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See your MD: Your children are young, and fevers take their toll. Make sure they stay hydrated, as at that age dehydration comes quickly. Make an appointment with your doctor, as she or he will get to the bottom of it and make the kids feel better and you less worried. If both kids have fevers it is likely contagious as well.
