Why Does A Child Sweat Excessively In Bed At Night?

My two year old is sweating so much in bed her hair is like she has just got out of the bath. Her back is covered in droplets. She feels cool to touch though. She was like it for a couple of nights two weeks ago and has had a cough/cold for a fortnight today. She has had high temperatures this last week. She has cut her back molar but I m not sure when-was probably over two weeks ago. Should I take her to see doctor?
