After Giving Ibuprofen The Temperature Has Not Come Down For 3 Year Old?
My son is 3 and has a tempreture of 38.5, which he has had for about 12 hours. He was also vomiting this morning, all though this seems to have stopped now. I have been giving him ibuprofen but it doesn't seem to be making a lot of difference. Should I contact the dr?

Hi,
Along with ibuprofen syrup give plenty of water so that he will get more perspiration and will bring temperature down.
Keep him well hydrated.
Ok and take care.
