We just got back from his pediatrician and we found out why he is running a fever. He defiantly doesn’t have the flu. That is a huge relief. The Cisco Kid has a loose tooth (nope that is not it either) on the left side of his mouth and he is constantly touching it and wiggling it. I’m sure every time he touches his tooth his hands are not sanitized or even clean. This cussed him to get a cold sour a couple of days ago. At least that is what I thought!!!! Cold sours are also known as a fever blister hence the fever. I never knew they were the same thing. I have always heard of fever blisters but never really knew that it gave you a fever. You get them from a virus. I thought you got the fever blister from a very high fever. Silly me!!!! Well, now I know better. The Cisco Kid is doing fine and is sleeping it off.
Whew! Glad he doesn't have the flu, but what a surprise it is a fever blister!! Who would have thought?? I didn't know that either! Hope he feels better soon! Did they give you cream or antibiotic or elixir or do you just wait and take Tylenol?
