Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ?  Please type your query here...My 9 year old son has awoken with a fever of 105.5 and he mentioned that his heart is pounding.  I counted about 107 beats per minute while he is resting in bed.  He has been fighting cold symptoms for about 4 days.  Hes had a fever on and off (highest was 103 before now).  Weve given him a dose of childrens Ibuprofen as well as a wet cloth to the forehead.  Any other suggestions?
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Your son needs to be evaluated for high grade fever and heart pounding. So better to consult pediatrician and get done blood reports, ECG, chest x-ray to rule out cardiac and lung related diseases for his symptoms. He needs antibiotics and other supportive Chat Doctor.  So take him to pediatrician. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your son. Thanks.
