A. 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 paracetamol or ibuprofen or mefenamic acidk are usually given to reduce fever . Cold sponging with lukewarm water is also helpful . Doctor consultation should be done if symptfoms like excessive irritability dullness loss of appetite less urine output is there .
