Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children2 years agoA. Fever is a reaction of the body to different pyrogens released during any Infection. Usually temp more than 99 F is taken as fever .
Mostly in children fever is because of viral infections like flu or RSV where the fever is there for 4-5 days but may persist even upto 2 weeks .
Initially antipyretic like paracetamol is given in a dose of 15 mmg / kg/ dose. Can be repeated after 4-6 hrs if needed .
Lukewarm sponge bath can be given as home remedy to decrease fever.
Adequate fluid intake is also beneficial.
Urine output monitoring is necessary to avoid dehyfdration .

Sai Prasanthi R LMom of a 11 yr 6 m old boy2 years agoA. Hello dear parent! Maybe due to cold and congestion. Try giving warm soups and khichadi. Keep giving sips of water. Try applying Babyhug cold relief baby rub to reduce the discomfort. Consult your doctor for evaluation and advice
