Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children4 years agoA. Fever is when the temperature of the body goes above 99 degree fahrenheit and the safest medicine in such situation is paracetamol which can be repeated after 6 hours again if required in a proper dose . Alternative medicine can also be tried if required like ibuprofen and mefenamic acid preparations.
cold sponging of the whvfole body with tap water can be beneficial too to bring the temperature down .

RashmiMom of a 11 yr old girl4 years agoA. Yes 90° fahrenheit is an absolutely normal temperature so if it crosses 99° fahrenheit again then you can give medicine after six hours of the previous medicine and also you should consult your doctor ones because if the fever is fluctuating your child is having cold and cough that it could be viral fever as well
