Q.

#AskTheExpert My son having fever. As per Pediatrics suggested, giving paracetamol 4ml every 6 hours. Today is the third day, but I don't see any improvements. Like fever shoots up at the end of every 6 hours. Is this okay? Shall I wait for 2 more days? If continues, when should I seek Dr again? Fever temp range 99 to 100.2. Please advise.
