Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children3 years agoA. Fever is commonly seen in babies and mostly it's viral infection which is very common in children.
But if fever is high grade and persisting or assosiated with specific symptoms than other causes should also be ruled out .
Antipyretic like paraceytamol or ibuprofen or mefenamic acid are usually given tyo reduce fever . Cold sponging with lukewarm water is also helpful .
Doctor consultation should be done if symptoms like excessive irritability dullness loss of appetite less urine output is there .

99 degreesFahrenheit ,37.5 Celsius is normal not fever.
Some times due to body heat also head ,palms will be warm rest body will be normal.
Regularly apply oil to baby scalp (Coconut oil or Castor oil cools down body).
You can also do massage with coconut oil to absorb body heat if any.
