What Causes Low Body Temperature In A Child?
Hi, my 2 year old daughter has been ill with cough/cold and high temp. (up to 38.9) for the last 4 days. Temp. was down today but she has been very irriatable and without having calpol today her temp. appears very low at 35.3. Is low temp. a concern? Thanks

Dear parent,
your concern is justifiable. Keep a watch. The temperature may go low but it should not go below 35. Make him comfortable in both cases, low or high temperature.
If this persists, take pediatricians visit, in a day or two.
