Is a 102.5 fever bad?
My son's fever is 102.5 and he's burning up. I'm really worried about this high temperature. Is this dangerously high for a child?

A 102.5 fever is high and shouldn't be ignored. Don't wait around for it to worsen; get in touch with a doctor or use an online consultation app to get a prescription. Keep monitoring it every hour.

With PCOS, my body already reacts weirdly to inflammation, so a 102.5 fever would make me super cautious. I don't want to give wrong advice, but please consult a doctor to be safe. Keep drinking fluids to stay hydrated.

Yes, 102.5 is a high fever. You should definitely take a paracetamol and consult a doctor if it doesn't come down soon.

Actually, 102.5 is quite high, yaar. You should take a crocin and do some cold sponging to bring it down. If it still doesn't budge, just call your family doctor instead of taking any risk.

Look, 102.5 is no joke. Don't sit and wait for a miracle or try fancy home remedies right now. Take a paracetamol to get the heat down and go see a doctor today itself. Take care of yourself.
