Fever in Kids: When to Seek Care
Fevers in kids can make any parent worry. While most fevers aren’t serious, there are times when it’s best to get it checked out—especially if you’re feeling unsure or concerned.
Our pediatric experts can quickly determine whether it’s a simple illness or something that needs more attention, using on-site testing and X-rays for accurate results.
When to Bring Your Child In:
- You’re concerned or unsure and want peace of mind
- Fever lasting more than 3 days
- Fever over 102°F that doesn’t respond to medicine
- Trouble breathing or vomiting that doesn’t stop
- Rashes or unusual spots
- Extreme tiredness, sleepiness, or loss of appetite
If something feels off, don’t hesitate to visit. We’ll make sure your child is well taken care of.
