What To Do For Frequent Low Fever, Headaches, Fatigue In Child?
Hi, My daughter (5 1/2yrs) was sick with a low grade fever, head aches, and fatigue about 4 weeks ago. It lasted a few days and seemed to go away. But then after a few days it seemed to come back and lasted for almost 3 weeks! Then it seemed to go away for a few days, but now is back again. Please advise.
