What Causes Fever To A 1 Year Old Child?
My daughter is 1.3 years old...from the past 3 days she is getting a fever without any other symptoms.Her pediatrician recommended crocin/ calpol but even after giving her the medicines the fever will go down for an hour or so and again her temperature starts rising. She has also become extremely cranky and irritable. Please suggest other necessary steps to find out the cause of her fever. Thank you.
