Sai Prasanthi R LMom of a 11 yr 6 m old boy3 years agoA. Hello dear parent! Try giving a light sponge bath to reduce the intensity of the fever. Try giving sips of water in between. If the fever persists then give a single dose of paracetamol drops and consult your doctor for evaluation and advice. Serve healthy foods in cute Babyhug stainless steel bowls and plates.
