- Fever: A high body temperature often indicates an infection. - Lethargy: Unusual tiredness or lack of energy. - Unusual irritability: Persistent crying or discomfort. - Vomiting or diarrhea: Signs of gastrointestinal issues. - Rashes or unexplained skin changes: Could indicate an infection or allergic reaction.
