When Should You Call the Doctor for a Fever in a Toddler?
It is perfectly normal for your toddler to run a fever when her body is trying to fight off an illness. But when fevers persist or continue to rise even after she has received a fever-reducing medication, then it may be time to contact the pediatrician to see if she would like you to bring the toddler in to be seen. Many parents hesitate to call, thinking they can take care of it, but being a good parent means knowing when it’s time to let a professional take over.
