What Is The Concerned Temperature For A 2 Year Old?
My daughter is 2 and has a fever of 38.3 c (under her arm), it begain @ 2 am with her pukeing up all of her stomach contents it was not liquid at all it was more like souped that had been filled with crackers... the moisture was gone... I have tried giving her tylenol to bring her fever down, but she pukes it up... the last time she puked was @ 3 pm today, but her fever seems to be getting higher... should I take her to the hosptial? how much higher should her fever get before I take her in?

A child with high fever or fever not subsiding with medications should be taken to the doctor at appropriate time for further treatment. medications like ibugesic or mefenamic acid can be used for high fevers.
