What Causes Appetite Loss And Fever In A Toddler?
My son will be 3 in November and he s constantly putting his fingers in his mouth towards his gums. Well slowly he has lost his appetite and literally has only ate a cheese biscuit this morning and a few pretzels and he drank some chocolate milk and water but at around 7 tonight I noticed he looked sick and I touched his forehead and knew he had a fever and now at 9:47pm he still has a fever and is moaning in his sleep. What could this be?
