My 11 month old son drank water from tub toys that contained mold and had not been used in some time. I had no idea until I saw it floating in the water after the fact. The following morning he had a high fever and chest congestion. Could this be an issue caused by the mold or simply a coincidence? This is the second day with these symptoms, should I be concerned?
Hello, I just read through your question. It is possible that the mold from the tub toys are responsible for this. You can treat the fever with Tylenol or Motrin. The congestion may last up to a week, but then it will resolve on its own. If the fever persists beyond 2-3 days, or the congestion beyond 1 week, I recommend consulting with your doctor. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
