Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy2 years agoA. when you take the temperature in the armpit of the child with the help of a digital thermometer and if it is 100 f (37.7 c) or more then you consider it as fever .
when you take the temperdature in the oral cavity of the child and if it is 100.5 degree fahrenheit then you consider it as fever and then paracetamol is given.
an armpit temperature is most often 0.5°f (0.3°c) to 1°f (0.6°c) lower than an oral temperature.
along wdith paracetamol continue body sponge and keep the child in light clothes.
paracetamol can be repeated after 6hrs if needed.
