<s>[INST] My 4 year old fell down the tree house stairs. Its about 10 ft off the ground and she fell from one of the top stairs. She had some cuts and lumps. I put ice on them and watched her. She seemed fine. This morning she was complaining of a sore neck. Now, at 1pm she has a 101 fever, but she says her neck isnt hurting anymore. Could the fever be related to the fall? Should I take her to the ER? Her dr cant see her till tmrw. [/INST] Cellophane You for contacting Chat Doctor. Fever could be due to stress from fall or wound infection. I would suggest you following things:> keep wound clean.> Do not touch with dirty hands> Wash with antiseptic solution and apply poly fax plus ointment> Give Spy Acetaminophen one tablespoon after every 6 hrs till fever settles. Report to hospital if:> Condition remain same after 2-3 days> Any unusual symptom appears> Condition deteriorates. Hope this answers your question.
