Suggest Remedy For Reduced Appetite In A Child While Having Fever
My 14 month old son has a rectal temperature of 102 degrees Fahrenheit, he is drinking a mix of water and strawberry/banana juice. But he doesn t seem too interested in food right now. He ate some pancakes for breakfast and had a temperature at that time of 101.5. That was about 6 hours ago. What should I do?
