What Causes Pain In The Cheeks With Fever In A Child?
My son who turns 4 next month keeps saying hid cheek hurts. he told me weeks ago and I put an ice pack on it. Now he had a fever for two days I took him to see a nurse at the doctors today and they couldn t find anything wrong no ear, no swollen glands, tested neg flu. but he s still crying over his cheek hurting him. I m wondering if I should take him to the hospital

Hello,
Yes, do send him to the hospital. But I'd suggest checking his teeth as it is common for the children to have toothache similar to cheek pain.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
