hi

my DS has a slight, but apparently rising temp (usually 35.5, rose to 36.4, now 36.7)

i've given him calpol but he spat most of it out.

he's subdued but OK

when do i worry?

higher than 38C is classed as a fever, according to this article on nhsdirect

nurofen works better on a temp than calpol I find but I don't know what age it can be given from - check the box
