What Is The Diet And Medication For Fever And Headaches For 5 Year Old?
my five year old son who weighs about 48lbs has a fever and headache after being in the water and sun all day. He is up and about but very listless. He doesn't seem to have any other symptoms except lack of appetite and lack of thirst. I could not even get him to eat ice cream or drink juice. What should I do?
