Why My Kid Is Having Fever In Night?
Hi, my 15 year old has been having an on and off fever for the past 4 days. She also shows signs of chills and sweats. Her condition worsens particularly at night in which she crys non stop. I'm assuming its teething but I'm not sure. However, she does bother her gums. What should I do and is it teething?

HI
Well come to HCM
First and important is to read the body temperature if this is not being taken, because this may not be fever just worm sensation and may be body surface hot, and not the core core temperature, if this is fever then she would be in need of some investigation, like urine analysis, and routine blood test, to rule out the possibility of infection, hope this information helps have a nice day.
