What Is The Treatment For High Temperature In A Child?
Hi, My 3 year old has had high temps for 2 days now which I have given paracetamol for but stretched out as far as possible between each dose. All day today he has been lethargic, not eating or drinking much and within the last 4 hours his temp has become so high that the whites of his eyes are now red, he has a barking cough and paracetamol doesnt seem to be lowering his temp. He has had croup before. Can you tell me if the red eyes with fever is normal please and should i continue treating him at home or seek medical attention. Thank you, Worried Mother
