Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, my daughter is almost 2 1/2 years old. We were out this afternoon for about an hour and half and part way through she started getting kind of whiney - not her usual self. She didn t sweat today like she usually does, even though she had plenty of fluids. She became very clingy too. Her eyes started watering and I thought is was maybe just the sunscreen bothering her. She hasn t had much of an appetite, so I took her temp and it is 102. I gave her tylenol about an hour ago and we took a tepid shower. She is more comfortable, but still has a temp of 102. Is this heat exhaustion? What else should I watch for / what else can I do to keep her comfortable?
At this age the million dollar question is whether she had febrile fit? fever and altered behaviour tend to recur with any rise of temperature of the body and take care to reduce and keep normothermic.
