How Do You Treat A Childs Low-Grade Fever?
When your toddler comes down with a fever, you always wonder what you should do in order to bring the fever down or make it go away. When a mommy sees her toddler not feeling well, she goes into overdrive to find ways to make her baby better. Use a thermometer. When you suspect your toddler has a fever, take your toddler’s temperature. A normal body temperature range for a healthy toddler is between 97 and 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit. If your toddler’s temperature is higher than 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit, he has a fever. Most children begin to show signs of not feeling well once their fever hits around 101.5 degrees Fahrenheit. Temperatures less than 103 degrees Fahrenheit are generally considered low-grade fevers. Use a cool compress and/or wash cloth. When you see your toddler is not feeling well and is warm or hot to the touch, place a cold compress on his forehead, behind his neck and on his wrists. This will help to cool his body temperature down. Place your toddler in a lukewarm bath
