For the past few months my daughter has been having consistent fevers. For the past two months it's been on a weekly basis for at least one or two days/ per week. The doctors have said it to be infections or viruses and they prescribe medicines and antibiotics. These fevers have also been combined with headaches on most occasions. I am extremely worried and I feel that there is something the doctors are missing Check Out the Answer

My 3 year old son has had headache and fever 101 F - 103 F for two days now. Doctor said he could find nothing wrong and it must be viral. I am very worried about the forehead ache.

Question Category : Fever
I have a 5 yr. old boy who's been sick for 14 days now. Symptoms are fever (around 100-101), leg and arm pain, stomach pain, headache, vomiting on occasion, and diarrhea. He's been to the doctor twice; the second time was in the emergency room for an i.v. and bloodwork. They haven't found a bacterial infection, they think it's viral. I have to give him Tylenol Motrin every 4 hours or his fever and pain comes back. He has problems with walking because of the pains in his legs. He lies around all day with no energy. Is this par for the course with viral infections? He's never been this sick before and I'm very concerned. They have ruled out meningitis. Check Out the Answer
Question Category : Fever
I am a concerned neighbor. My neighbor has two sons. She has a one year old and a two year old. Both of them have seizures when they have fevers. I believe the condition is called "Febrile seizures." Well, they don't have any medical insurance and the doctor they do see only prescribes: ammoxicillan and albuterol for the two. Both have fevers that are going on three days. Is there any chance that the children might have meningitis or do you have any other suggestions on what these parents should be looking for other than a simple fever and ear infection?.
