Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children1 Year agoA. Fever is a reaction of the body to different pyrogens released during any Infection. Usually temp more than 99 F is taken as fever .
Mostly in children fever is because of viral infections like flu or RSV where the fever is there for 4-5 days but may persist even upto 2 weeks .
Initially antipyretic like paracetamol is given in a dose of 15 mg / kg/ dose. Can be repeated aftertyy 4-6 hrs if needed .
Lukewarm sponge bath can be given as home remedy to decrease fever.
Adequate fluid intake is also beneficial.
Urine output monitoriyng is necessary to avoid dehydration .

RashmiMom of a 10 yr 11 m old girl1 Year agoA. This is basically called growth pain which is extremely common with kids in this age but apart from that you should take care of the deficiencies that your child could be having which is vitamin D3 B12 and calcium that is also common in this age so it’s going to be better to discuss it with your paediatrician and if required start with supplements and massage the legs of your child in the night with mustard oil
