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 hofme remedy to decrease feverh. Adequate fluid intake 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 seek further advice. Serve your child healthy foods in cute Babyhug stainless steel bowls and plates to encourage eating healthy.
