My 17month old niece has been running a fever for three days sometimes as high as 103.8, We have had her examined and thye couldn t find anything wrong and the doc at ER said it was probably a viral cold. She tested negative for a UTI. Now today her temp has been gong down (latest reading is 96.4 and she has developed a rash on her back, tummy and neck. Should we be worried or take her back to ER?
