Strep doesn't always come with fever.  It's from sinus drainage down the back of your throat.  This is strictly from my DR Mom experience.  It's good you're going to a doctor.  They will do a culture to make sure and prescribe antibiotics.  In the mean time, ibuprofen will help with the pain (alittle) and chloraseptic throat spray.  Good luck and hope you feel better.

It depends on a lot of factors, including what other symptoms are being exhibited, what have you tried to do to bring it down, how long has it been up, what were the circumstances surrounding the high temperature (was the child covered up, asleep, running around, etc.), what is your child's "normal" high temperature (some children run higher fevers than others), and how was the temperature taken (ear thermometers are notoriously inaccurate)?  For some children it is not unusual to run a fever around 105 or 106.  For others, 104 is extremely high.  Generally, speaking, I wouldn't go to the emergency room for just a fever, but if the child is running a high fever (over 101, at least) and seems lethargic, complains of a headache, or just seems particularly ill, then it would be worth a trip to calm your nerves, if nothing else.

A fever is any temperature that is above normal. What a normal temperature is will depend on where it is taken. In the mouth, a normal temperature is 98.6° F; under the arm, normal is 98° F; by rectum, it is 100° F. \n \n What Do I Do? \n \n If you believe your child has a fever: \n \n  Take her temperature. \n \n  Give acetaminophen (Infants' or Children's Tylenol®) if the temperature is over 100° F by mouth, 99° F under arm, 101° F by rectum. See dosing chart below. \n \n  Give acetaminophen (Infants' or Children's Tylenol®) every four hours while there is a fever, but no more than five times in a 24-hour period. \n \n  Keep her cool. Dress a baby in a diaper and shirt; dress a child in lightweight clothing. \n \n  Give her large amounts of fluids—a child with a fever usually likes ice chips, juice, water, soda or tea. \n \n  Sponge or bathe your child with barely warm water for about 20 minutes for a temperature of 103° F by mouth, 102° F under arm or 104° F by rectum. \n \n Should My Child See A Doctor? \n \n Sometimes a child will need medicine to treat an infection. It is important for a doctor to see the child if he: \n \n  Is under 2 months old. \n \n  Is extremely irritable or excessively sleepy. \n \n  Has difficulty breathing or breathes fast. \n \n  Complains of neck pain or holds the neck in an unusual way. \n \n  Has a seizure (convulsion). \n \n  The temperature is not normal after two days of acetaminophen (Infants' or Children's Tylenol®). \n \n  Develops a rash. \n \n  Pulls at his or her ear or complains of ear pain. \n \n  Has not wet a diaper or urinated in 12 hours. \n \n  Lips, tongue and lining of the mouth are dry and dull. \n \n  Complains of a sore throat. \n \n   Amount to Give Dosing Chart\nfor Acetaminophen (Infant's or Children's TYLENOL©  Infant's Concentrated Drops\n80 mg/0.8 ml  Children's Suspension Liquid and Elixir\n160 mg/5 ml  Children's Chewable Tablets\n80 mg each  Junior Strength Chewable Tablets/ Caplets\n160 mg each  \nDose dropper teaspoon tablet tablet/ caplet \nWeight  Age      \n6-11 lbs  0-3 mos  *     \n12-17 lbs  4-11 mos  *  *    \n18-29 lbs  12-23 mos  *  *    \n25-35 lbs  2-3 yrs  2  1  2   \n36-47 lbs  4-5 yrs   1 1/2  3   \n48-59 lbs  6-8 yrs   2 4 2 \n60-71 lbs  9-10 yrs   2 1/2  5  2 1/2  \n72-95 lbs  11 yrs   3  6  3  \n96 lbs +  12 yrs     4  \n * = consult physician \n \n \n \n What Shouldn't I Do? \n \n If your child has a fever: \n \n  Do not use an alcohol bath to sponge or bathe the child. \n \n  Do not use an ice water bath to sponge or bathe the child. \n \n  Do not overdress the child. \n \n  Do not use adult acetaminophen for young children under age 5. \n \n  Do not worry if the child is not eating. Liquids are important. \n \n  Do not give acetaminophen (Infants' or Children's Tylenol®) more than five times in 24 hours. \n \n Could It Be Prevented? \n \n  Do not expose the child to people who are ill. \n \n  There is no way to prevent a fever. However, it is important to give the child acetaminophen (Infants' or Children's Tylenol®) to control the fever.

Are you sick? It could be a fever. I have had that happen to me.

Please, don't put your child's health in the hands of an amateur forum. Respect your child's mind and body. Consult your doctor. (I am a physician myself and this is the best advice I can possibly give you.)

well i figured this out a while ago! usualy when i have a fever i am streesed out, so strees makes me hotter (makes my fever go up) and then while i am sleeping  all of the strees makes me think of bazzar scarry night tarrors. so what i do to stop this is before i go to be when i have a fever is i drink a cold glass of milk, turn my humidifyer on, write in my journal how i feel (its like letting all of your feelings out on a piece of paper) and when i let my feelings out i feel better. \n\nHOpe this helps!\n\nChloe

a lukewarm bath will bring the fever down quickly. Then alternate motrin and tylenol about every 3-4hrs.  Mother of five trust me it works.

a fever is the way your childs body starts to fight of an infection. If she has had it all day and it is not dropping, take her to the ER. you can try to let her sit in a lukewarm bath, if you live in or near missouri St. louis has a nursing hotline that you can call to ask ??'s. i have called them before and they are really helpful. You may try to call your dr. at home. You do not need to give her anymore meds. It is dangerous to exceed the dosage w/o a doctors order. my peditrician and my son's nuerologist both say to alternate children's tylenol and children's motrin every 3 hours if that doesnt work then they need to be seen. God Bless and good luck. I know its scary to have a sick child, but stay calm and if nothing else, a trip to the ER may be your best bet.

If he is doing well otherwise breathing fine color is good etc and the fever is the only problem them just give him Tylenol every 4 hours if the Tylenol alone doesn't work you can also give Advil/ibuprofen every 6 hours you can give them for the first 24 hours just to keep the fever down and then see how he's doing after that. If it's anything more serious than just the fever then certainly take him to the Dr.

oh i feel so sorry for your little one! that's way too long to be sick. and a fever of 104 is extremely high which can be dangerous. when my daughter was 16 months, her fever got so high she had a seisure. the doctor said very high fevers can cause brain damage. you should give your daughter motrin which will really knock that fever out for alot longer period of time than tylenol. i have had several doctors tell me over the years that you can give motrin and tylenol at the same time. i really hope she gets well real soon. i will say a prayer for her as soon as i'm done typing this. oh geeze i just realized you said may 19, i thought it said may 6! so it's been about 4 days, hang in there. a month ago my 4 year old son was sooooo sick for 4 days, high fevers, vomiting, i was so scared i took him to ER twice and the clinic once. it was just something i had to wait out and let it take it's course.

If the fever is the only problem you're having, as long as it's not more than 103F (orally), you're probably OK.  If you have a regular doctor, you might call and let them know what your temperature is--they might want to see you anyway.\n\nHere's a link from Yahoo! Health on fever:

go see a doctor - high fevers can be dangerous this is not exactly the place to get sound medical advice - but keep drinking liquids and keep cool - don't cover up more than you have too

Take her to a doctor.  It's possible that she has an infection of some sort.  It's also possible that she's acting out because of some sort of trauma (stress, abuse, being abandoned by her parents).  This isn't normal behavior for a healthy 9-yr-old.\n\nGood luck!

my daughters are 18months and 3 months and the oldest was doing the same thing my doctor said try a humidifier at night.  also you can turn your shower on hot let the bathroom steam up good then run a warm bath maybe put some calming bath soap in the water and just let her play untill the water starts getting cold or she starts getting tired whatever comes first.  when you get her out dry her off good and put a t-shirt on her nothing to heavy(sometimes wearing heavey clothing can cause them to get hot and make them caugh also)then let her sleep with the humidifer.  after a couple nights i could really hear a difference in my 18 month olds breathing she slept more peacefull the sounds from the machine also sooth my 3 month old to where she is now sleeping better also
