A. thank you sir. one more point i missed, his forehead is much wormer than the body even after giving paracetamol.

A. Fever is a response of the body to any kind of infection or any inflammatory process in body so you can give paracetamol in a dose of 15 mg/kg/dose as the first line treatment also this dose can be again repeated after every 5 to 6 hours if agagrin required and you can also do cold sponging of the body to reduce fever
