Fever

बुखार

Fever is a raised temperature set-point — a symptom, not a disease by itself.

Pediatrics

Fever

Fever is a raised temperature set-point — a symptom, not a disease by itself.

We decide how the child looks, not only the number on the thermometer. A playful child with 101°F is different from a dull child with 99.8°F. Danger is in breathing, rash, neck and urine, not the decimal.

Understand

What we explain in clinic

What it is

Body

The thermostat rises to fight infection. The child feels cold, then hot.

Look first

Traffic light

Play, colour, cry and feeding tell us more than a single reading.

Comfort

Home

Light clothes, fluids, and the correct paracetamol dose by weight.

Myths

Avoid

No alcohol rubs, no doubling syrups, no antibiotic ‘because it is Tuesday’.

Evaluation

What we look for

Source

Find

Ears, throat, chest, tummy, urine and skin every time.

Age rules

Babies

Any fever in a baby under three months is a same-day visit.

Pattern

Days

Fever still high on day four, or gone and back, needs a second look.

School

Return

When the child is playful and off fever for the period we advise.

At Grace Clinic

How care is planned

01

Listen first

We take a full history — onset, feeding, fever, sleep, school and any earlier reports.

02

Examine & chart

Growth, chest, tummy, skin and development are checked. Tests are advised only if they change care.

03

Treat & follow

A clear home plan is given, with a review so we know the child is settling.

When to book

Same-day care for a baby under 3 months with fever, a non-blanching rash, stiff neck, or a child who is not drinking.
