A. your history tells us that the child is suffering from viral fever and in viral fever you have to give only symptomatic treatment that is for fever have to give paracetamol(max 4 times per day if needed) and plenty of water to drink and at least 60 to 70% of the regular diet and if the fever continues beyond 3 days then meet the doctor the duration of action of paracetamol is only for 6 hours and after that fever can reoccur

A. But the medicine cannot be given every four hours a medicine can only be repeated after six hours so it’s a fever is not yet and controlled and I would recommend you to get a blood test done for your child to figure out what’s the issue because of the fever does not subside within 72 hours and it could be due to viral infection as wellWrite Your Answer Here
