• Dehydration: Signs of dehydration in infants include dry mouth, decreased urination, sunken eyes, and lethargy.
• Ear infections: Persistent ear pain, pulling at the ear, or fever accompanied by ear symptoms may indicate an ear infection.
• Respiratory issues: Difficulty breathing, rapid breathing, wheezing, or a persistent cough can be signs of a respiratory infection.
