🌡️ How high is too high?

It's one of the most common questions we hear about fever. But the truth is, the number on the thermometer is only one part of the picture.

When deciding whether your child needs medical attention, we look at the whole child—how they look, how they're behaving, how well they're drinking, and whether they're showing any warning signs. Catch up with us in the main video to learn more.
