She has blotchy skin all over her body, she s lethargic, and is too young to take tamiflu. is there any point in taking her to the er, or should i just stay home and ride it out?

Hello,

At high-grade fever, you should rush to ER as baby can get fits any time. It could be viral or bacterial. Do CBC test. Also, improve the feeding status of the baby. And consult again with the test report.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
