agree. This is one thing i love about dcum. If you're being irrational, you will get called on it. OP needs to take a chill pill.

Only one person was mean. Relax

My son, 14yo, had the same symptoms (dry cough, pink cheeks, no fever) for a week or two in March and is fine now. We didn’t go to the Dr. - he has horrible seasonal allergies and I chalked it up to that.

Should I call ped? I'm trying not to panic.
Lol. Her temp is right around 98, idiot.

It’s prime allergy time, OP. Settle down.

Does she feel hot to the touch or not?
My daughter has a persistent cough (no fever) from seasonal allergies.

Why would you panic?
Just do what you would normally do.

My 5 year old has a persistent dry cough and pink cheeks. Of course my thermometer is being unreliable. I took her temp multiple times and got multiple results (all right around 98 but I don't feel like it's working properly.)
