A. as the temperature is more than 37.7 degree Celsius therefore the child is suffering from fever and you have to give paracetamol and this medicine can be given maximum 4 times per day

A. this is normal madam know when to say fever in babiesbaby has warm head , soles and stomach on touch as it s a normal thing. It s due to hyperdynamic circulation and is normal. fever is said if baby s temperature is above or 99.5 farenheit. Then needs medicines to treat.

Mom of a 1 yr 5 m old girl

Q. #asktheexpert Hello Doctor. My 17month old is having a viral cold since a week now. Since a couple days her temperature when taken from the ear remains elevated at 38°C (100.4°F) but her temperature when taken from the armpit is normally constant at 36.7°C (98.06°F). Since the last couple days in the evenings until bedtime her head becomes warm to touch and thats when her ear temperature reads 38°C. Can anyone please advice why is this so? My paed says its normal and that the viral will take time to subside and its her peak development age so warm head is also normal. But i want a second opinion if anyone can help. Thank you.
