Should I take my son to a children's doctor now that his fever has spiked back up to 103.5?F along with a cold and runny nose, despite giving him P250 and Meftal P, or is it safe to wait and see if his condition improves?

Since his fever has reached 103.5?F and isn't coming down despite giving paracetamol (P250) and mefenamic acid (Meftal P), it is best to have him evaluated by a pediatrician today. Persistent high fevers require a professional assessment to find the cause and ensure he receives the correct treatment and dosage. In the meantime, keep him hydrated with plenty of fluids, dress him in lightweight clothing, and use lukewarm water to gently sponge him to help him feel comfortable.
