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 spongee 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. higher medicines for fever like ibugesic and mefenamic has to be given only after medical consultation

A. Hello dear parent! Better to consult your child’s doctor for a personal evaluation and seek further advice. It can be a viral infection. Maintain a good personal hygiene and follow your doctor’s advice diligently. Complete the course of medication as prescribed by your doctor. Good luck and take care.
