Parents use common sense, ...Not necessarily doctor. Parents use common sense, the simple fact of a fever and sweating does not always indicate the need for medical treatment. Time needs to be taken to assess the degree of illness at home and if symptoms persist then go to a hospital If they get better it might simply be a viral illness which requires no medical treatment. Medically speaking it is completely appropriate to have a chuild in the shower assisting to mitigate theior fever through radiation of heat. This can prevent febrile seizures as can acetaminophen. It seems "people like you" are always looking to be critical and judge the worst in people who are expressing a problematic situation. You might have noticed that they DID take the child to the hospital and I assume the outcome was favourable as they did not indicate the child had died. So how would your criticism have improved the outcome?Paulnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4912713243046142041.post-64389250853394859172016-06-20T07:41:43.760-05:002016-06-20T07:41:43.760-05:00You are quite correct that in the vast majority of...You are quite correct that in the vast majority of cases it is not necessary or advantageous to decrease a mild or moderate fever.
