A. the first medicine will always be paracetamol and it is given according to weight and power of paracetamol medicine you are having. give liquids and easily digestible food and paracetamol should be given only after food. keep the child in cool environment and avoid using woolen clothes when the child is having fever armpit temperature of hundred or more is cxonsidered as fever to body sponge to decrease the surface temperature and should be carried out for at least 20 minutes with normal temperature water. higher mediccines (ibugesic / meftal-p) whether required or not will be told by the doctor.

A. The fever is little on the higher side I think it’s better to consult your paediatrician they’ll help you with the medicine which would be stronger in nature to reduce down the fever and the fever has a nature to repeat every 4 to 5 hours if you can repeat the dosage after six hours again and as I said the fever is really high giving cold sponging is going to be very beneficial
