Be informed

What patients should realistically expect

Most fevers are viral

Self-limiting in 3–5 days; hydration matters more than antibiotics.

Growth is a trend

A single measurement matters less than the trajectory.

We deliberately avoid success-rate claims. Outcomes vary — your doctor will give you a personalised view.

Patient FAQs

Frequently asked questions

When should I worry about my child's fever?+

Persistent fever above 102°F for more than 48 hours, or any fever in an infant under 3 months, deserves a same-day visit.

Are vaccines on schedule still safe?+

Yes — the IAP schedule is well-tested. Talk to your pediatrician about any catch-ups.
