Episode Notes

In the second episode of KidzDocTalk, Dr. Jennie goes over Fever Phobia. Today we learn what a normal temperature should be, when your temperature is just elevated and when to be worried about high temperatures. When we are running a fever, that is the body’s way of setting off an alarm, a clue, to let us know there is an intruder (infection). Learn the different kinds of infections brought on due to a fever, how your body fights these infections and what you can do as a parent to help your child when they have a fever.
