Is my daughters Temperature okay?!
Question: Is my daughters Temperature okay?
all day my daughters skins has been feeling very hot to touch and she seems a little bit sick, idk how to explain it but i can see it in her eyes and she gets grouchy at times.. but i just took her temp and it is 38.9 Celsius is that normal? i heard your supposed to add some if you take the temp from the armpit?? she just has her 1 yr shots last week so could that be causing her skin to feel very hot? also she has a very slight cough.. and when should i take her to the hospital?
Answers:
Sounds like she has a mild fever. Children have a little higher body temps than adults so it isn't a serious fever but she does have one. Antibiotics, a cool glass of water and some rest will do some good!
she looks like she has a fever could be a small throat infection?
or any thing else?
yes you do add certain amount of extra temperature when u measure form the arm put,
take her now or atleast have callled a doctor
