when you take the temperature in the armpit of the child with the help of a digital thermometexr and if it is 100 f (37.7 c) or more then you consider it as fever or when you take the xtemperature 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.

RashmiMom of a 11 yr old girl3 years agoA. No The temperature has to be 99° plus then only we calculate it has fever even if it is 98.9 we say it is normal temperature so any time if it crosses 99°F even if it is 99.1°F then also it is just going to be counted as fever in
