A. yes to be given the first medicine will always be paracetamol and it is given according to weight and power of paracetamol medicine you are having. give liquids and easily digestible food and paracetamol should be given only after food. keep the child in cool environment and avoid using woolen clothes when the child is having fever armpit temperature of hundred or more is considered as fever to body sponge to decrease the surface temperature and should be carried out for at least 20 minutes with normal temperature water. higher medicines (ibugesic / meftal-p) whether required or not will be told by the doctor.

A. When the temperature 99°F that means the fever is there so you should give paracetamol to the child and if the temperature increases then you can repeat the medicine again after six hours and also continue with the medicine as per the temperature temperature of the child
