Maybe an infection: A baby or toddler with a new fever usually has some type of infection. Sometimes viruses and mycoplasma germs can cause fevers. Viral infections usually go away on their own, but mycoplasma needs antibiotic treatment. Bacterial infections, such as of the throat, ears, or urinary bladder, need a doctor to prescribe antibiotics. A doctor may also look for some more rare or more serious conditions.
