A. 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 after 4-6 hrs if needed . Lukewarm sponge bath can be given as home remedy to decrease fever. Adequate fluid ingtake is also beneficial. Urine output monitoring is necessary to avoid dehydration .

A. Hello dear parent! Without proper physical examination it is not possible to conclude anything. Consult your child’s doctor for evaluation and advice. Regularly massage your baby with Babyhug cold pressed coconut oil. Give your baby a well balanced healthy diet and water along with daily breastfeeding.
