    • Fevers in Children: How High Is Too High?

    For kids over age 3, a fever over 102° F that lasts for 2 or more days may be a reason for concern.

    If their doctor tells you to keep an eye on it, a couple days may be OK.

    However, if your little one has had a fever for 5 or more days, be sure to call back to make an appointment with their doctor. The same goes for a fever that doesn’t lower with OTC medications.

    Other symptoms that may warrant urgent care:

    • trouble breathing or swallowing
    • difficulty keeping fluids down (vomiting)
    • burning with urination or infrequent urination
    • unexplained dark rash
    • stiff neck, abdominal pain, or other concerns
    • acting lethargic or difficult to wake

    For children ages 4 and up, you may use a digital thermometer to take temperature orally under the tongue (if your child can hold it there long enough).

    For best results, be sure to wait 30 minutes after your child last ate or drank anything.

    You may also take a reading in the ear or armpit — or even on the forehead using a temporal artery thermometer.

    You know your child best.
