A. when you take the temperature in the armpit of the child with the help of a digital thermometer and if it is 99 f (37 c) or more then you consider it as fever or when you take the temperature in the oral cavity of thed child and if it is 100 degree fahrenheit then you consider it as fever and then paracetamol is given. along with paracetamol continue body sponge and keep the child in lightd clothes. paracetamol can be repeated maximum four times per day

A. Hello dear parent! Give paracetamol drops to reduce the intensity of symptoms. Keep Babyhug medicine spoon handy. Light sponging helps . Consult your doctor for further evaluation and advice. Good luck and take care
