Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy2 years agoA. do body sponge for now and repeat the same at 4 am.
can repeat after 6hrs
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 or when you take the temperature in the oral cavity .
of the child and if it is 99 degree fahrenheit then you consider it as fever and then paracetamol is given.
along with paracetamol continue body sponge and keep the child in light clothes.
