A. for fever as well as pain kindly give paracetamol according to the weight of child as well as according to the power of paracetamol medicine you are having and paracetamol can be given maximum 4 times per day and also do body sponge to decrease the surface temperature. also when u take temperature in the armpit of the child and it is 100 or more then only consider it as fever and give paracetamol.u higher medicines for fever like ibugesic and mefenamic has to be given only after medical consultation. after giving fever medicines you can wait for maximum 3 days and then meet your doctor if it is not improving. keep the child in cool atmosphere

A. 5ML is actually a very heavy dosage that you have given to the child looking at the current age of child would have probably 2ML maximum 2.5 ML depending upon the weight of the child yet the fever and cold or not in control I suggest you to kindly consult your doctor they’ll help you with proper medications maybe it is an allergy reaction and accordingly they can assist you further
