Do Children Run A Temperature When Adult Teeth Are Being Erupted?
My four year old girl has a temp of 101.7. she is eating ok and drinking water. but she is complaining her front bottom two teeth hurt when she bites down. Can children run a temp when their adult teeth are starting to come in? her teeth are not loose yet.

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The eruption of teeth can cause fever and diarrhea. These conditions are called teeththing disorders. Nothing to be panic, you can give your child a dose of paracetamol syrup and let her do saline gargling. You have to consult a oral physician to confirm the diagnosis, since the fever can be because of many reasons.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
