[|Human|] We have a 10 year old grand daughter who accidentally sat on a pencil and it stabbed her in the leg. She is running a temp of 106 deg. How concerned should we be? She went to the Dr and they gave her some antibiotics. She doesn t want to eat or drink, only wants to sleep
[|AI|]  Hi and welcome to Chat Doctor. I understand your concerns. It may cause infection, but you need to do next: Look at the area where this pencil lead was stabbed and see if this is red, warm or swollen. In there are no such signs then her symptoms are not cause by this type of infection, and you should look for something else such as flu or urinary infection. If there is redness then it should be removed surgically and antibiotics may be required. I hope I have answered your query. Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
