What could it be???

DS2 has been sent home from nursery every afternoon this week with a temperature.

He has been up at night every hour and a half all week, crying and seeming unwell, but in the morning he's perky as anything and not ill at all (hence sending him back to nursery). He has been feverish in the night once or twice but OK the rest of the time at home.

LFT is negative. He talks very clearly and we've asked if his throat or ears or anything else hurts, but he says no, only his head. No cough or anything. He has wet himself a few times which is unusual, so I wonder if he has a UTI, but I asked him if it hurts when he wees and he says no.

What could it be??? The nights are killing me and the bloody fever keeps coming back! Picking him up early every afternoon is unsustainable as I work full time.

Hand foot and mouth makes them cry at night. Any red spots on his soles? It itches like mad at bedtime.

Maybe get him checked out and take a wee sample with you "in case".

Thanks, I don't want to waste the doc's time, and temp and headache didn't seem enough to warrant a visit, but he isn't right so I think getting him checked is best. He had hand foot and mouth in October so I'm not sure if that can have come back already but I will check him later.
