Question

Accepted Answer

If your son has a fever of 104.4°F, it is high and should be closely monitored. While high fever itself is not always dangerous, it can sometimes indicate a serious underlying condition. It is important to take immediate steps to bring the fever down, such as giving fever-reducing medication (like paracetamol or ibuprofen, as per the doctor's advice) and sponging with lukewarm water.

Seek emergency medical care if:

1. The fever persists despite medication.

2. Your child appears very lethargic, confused, or unresponsive.

3. There are additional symptoms like difficulty breathing, seizures, or a rash.

Generally, a fever above 104°F warrants contacting your pediatrician immediately. If the fever goes higher or symptoms worsen, visit the hospital without delay.
