💥🌡️Fevers➡️ when do I need to call the Doctor or PA?!

➡️If your child is over 👶🏻three months old and the fever is below 102 you can let it ride for about three days using anti-fever medication’s like Tylenol or ibuprofen

🛑once the fever has lasted three days, it’s a good idea to call and schedule an appointment with your pediatrician for a full exam.

👩‍⚕️This is to rule out sources of infection, including ear infections, strep throat, pneumonia, urinary tract infections-➡️which could require antibiotic treatment

🦠Viruses can cause fevers that can last 3-5 days and usually resolve on their own without treatment
