Re: Helmet off while teething-induced fever?

[Guest guest]

Ami, My son is teething as well and has the STARband. Our orthotist told us

that while he runs a fever he can keep his band off. And also if the weather is

very hot and you can't keep him cool, he can also keep it off then. As long as

it is no longer than 4-5 hours at time. When his fever breaks, I would put it

on. Hope that helps! It's hard some days... The teething makes them

miserable!! Lesley
