A child of 2 and half years old is suffering with fever from last night we tried tylenol but fever is not lowering what to do next

Answered on 26th June '24
When your child has a fever, it can cause worry. But staying calm is key. Most fevers in kids happen due to infections. If Tylenol fails to reduce the fever, give a lukewarm bath and drink lots of fluids to stay hydrated. Dress them in light, comfortable clothes. However, if the fever persists, you should contact a pediatrician.

My son drink 30ml of Nyquil instead of 15ml. He is 8yr old. weight 44lb and 4ft height.
Male | 8
Medicine is crucial but you must be extremely careful with doses. If your child takes too much, it can make them sick. Your son drank double the recommended Nyquil amount. He will likely feel drowsy, dizzy, and have an upset stomach or headache. The overdose happened because the medicine was too strong for his body size. Give him water right away. Watch him carefully for other symptoms. If he seems unwell, don't hesitate to get medical help.

Male | 4
Kids often don't have an appetite and get sick. This can happen when they're growing up fast. Infections, bad food choices, or even stress might cause it. Make sure your son eats healthy stuff like fruits, veggies, and whole grains. Little meals and snacks work better than big ones sometimes. He needs water and rest too. If it keeps happening, talk to the doctor about what's going on and what to do next.
