Question
Has your child recently shown any signs of teething, such as swollen gums, drooling, or unusual chewing?
Answer
When children are teething, they may experience a slight fever, but the temperature usually does not exceed 38.5°C. This type of fever is typically temporary and subsides as the new tooth fully erupts. However, if the fever persists or exceeds this temperature, or is accompanied by other symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, or rashes, it may be a sign of another condition and requires further medical evaluation.
