4 Year Old Fever
103.3°F fever in 4 year old? He didn't have a fever this morning, and his fever 1 hour ago was 100.3... He has an ear infection and he's sluggish, but he can eat. Should I tell mom to bring him to ER? - From a worried 14 year old sister

Yes,he definitely needs physical examination and investigation for further management. Till then,give just paracetamol for fever and repeat every 4 hours if required.
