What Causes Recurring Infections In Children?
my 4 yr old keeps getting fever producing illnesses every other week - started with strep, then walking pneumonia, then stomach "flu", then throat virus, and now virus with cold symptoms and fever. she has been to doctor 3 times in last 2 months and he says its just bad luck - she is in daycare so is exposed to a lot of stuff and we promote handwashing. my other two kids were not this sick - why does she keep getting everything?

Thank you for asking querry.
See immunity of every child is different.
And as you told she is in daycare so more chances of catching infection there.
No need to worry it will decrease as age of child increases.
Hope you find this helpful.
