A doctor has provided 1 answer

Doctor can evaluate: A child over age 3 months can have a fever when there is an infection, and acetaminophen is temporarily used for fevers over 100-101 degrees to make such a child more comfortable and less fussy. Parents should observe to see what symptoms are present, and also talk with the doctor to ask if the child needs an exam. With prolonged, multiple symptoms as in this case, the doctor will want to examine.
