My 3 year old son has had a high fever all day lowest was 101. I ve been alternating with Advil and Tylenol. He also has been complaining of stomach pain on the lower right side. At one point in time during the day when i barely touched his side he moved away saying it hurt. I gave him more pain and fever medicine and now he just says his belly button hurts and his fever has hit an all time high of 104.4. Do I go to an ER or wait and call his doctor? What should I do?
Hi....he seems to be having a Viral illness. Giving more pain and fever medicine might not help if already Chat Doctor.  Please restrict the usage of medicine. Give only Tylenol & that too only if temperature is more than 101F. Sometimes NSAID like Ibuprofen can cause mild gastritis and pain in the tummy. If still pain is persisting after restricting to only paracetamol only, then get a consultation at the emergency room. Regards -
