Fever in children should not be underestimated
Fever is a common symptom in children, which usually signals that the body is fighting an infection. In addition to an elevated temperature, the child may be troubled by irritability, fatigue, flushed cheeks, loss of appetite or body aches. The most common causes of fever include viral infections, bacterial diseases, tooth growth or a reaction to vaccinations. Although fever can be worrisome for parents, it is not a disease in itself, but a natural defensive reaction of the body. If the situation is severe and medication is needed, a great helper in reducing fever is Nurofen Junior.
