Is Fever, Tiredness, Appetite Loss Normal When Cutting Molars?
my 6 year old is complaining of pain where a molar is coming in. she's had a low-grade fever (99.5-100) the last 48 hours, is a lot more tired than usual and has barely wanted to eat (she normally eats like a horse!). are these all normal symptoms when cutting molars? thanks

Hi...all these symptoms are common when the molars are erupting. Nothing to worry about it. Just give her Paracetamol or Ibuprofen in the apporpriate dose suggested on the pack.
