Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Should Child Be Taken To The Doctor For Fever, Sweating, Poor Appetite, And Cough?
My 7 year old son has had a temp of 96 for 2 days. He says that he's hot and has been really sweaty. His appetite has been poor as well. He's also been coughing so I just assume he's getting a cold, but he's never had this before. Should I take him to the doctor? Should I be concerned?
These are not very concerning symptoms. 96 F is not fever. more than 100 F should be considered as fever. He may need doctor consultation for cough and sweating. Regards.
