Hi, My daughter developed a fever yesterday(101) she also complained about headache and that her stomach was hurting. She continues to have a fever but it has gone up to 103.7. i have been giving her advil but it has not seemed to help. does she need to be seen by our doctor? or should we wait and see how she is over night?
Thanks for asking I have gone through your question. Your daughter is having fever, that gone up to 103.7. And Advil not helping. The first thing you should do is water sponging. The proper technique for water spooning is, Take a small cloth and wet it with normal tap water. Rub the wet cloth smoothing on whole body of daughter including scalp, abdomen, chest (both side), all four limbs. The temperature with Chat Doctor.  You can add spy paracetamol 15\u00a0mg per kg per dose (available without prescription) to Advil to get better result. As fever is in range of 103.7, you should consult doctor for cause of fever. Hope i able to answer your query wish you health family life
