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.
My 2 year old suddenly spiked a fever of 102 and a strep culture came back negative! She is now having a difficulty breathing at night with snoring and restlessness, but NO more fever, she drools horribly during the day and breathing does not seem to be affected during the day. Should I give it a few more days or have her be seen again quickly?
Hi, Thank you for asking question on health care magic. Fever with breathing difficulty may indicate either Pneumonia or bronchial asthma or bronchiolitis (definitely lower respiratory tract infection). Better take her to hospital quickly. Hope this answer will serve your purpose Please feel free to ask any more queries if required Take care Dr.M.V.Subrahmanyam MD;DCH Associate professor of pediatrics
