My baby has a fever and no other symptoms. Whats wrong?
When a baby has a high fever that isn’t accompanied by a runny nose, a cough, vomiting, or diarrhea, figuring out what’s wrong can be difficult. Some viral infections, such as roseola, cause three days of very high fever followed by a light pink rash on the trunk. More serious infections, such as meningitis, urinary tract infections, or bacteremia (bacteria in the bloodstream), may also trigger a high fever without any other symptoms. If your baby has a high fever and no other symptoms, call the doctor. This article has been modified, with permission, from the way it appeared originally on BabyCenter.com.
