2year10month old running a fever from last night,poor appetite and tired ,recent temperature reading 38.7. should i take him to the doctor or keep administering panado?

If parent is worried: Whether or not a 3 year-old with a 101.7 fever needs to go to the ER depends on if the parent is very worried, and if the child actually has serious symptoms. If the parent is very worried, he should take the child to the ER. But, a normal healthy 3 year-old who looks pretty good, acts pretty normal, and just started his fevers, usually can see the doctor if not better in about 2 days.
