Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children3 years agoA. Fever is commonly seen in babies and mostly it's viral infection which is very common in children.
But if fever is high grade and persisting or assosiated with specific symptoms than other causes should also be ruled out .
Antipyretic like paracetamol or ibuprofen or mefenamgtic acid are usually given to reduce fever . Cold sponging with lukewarm water is also helpful .
Doctor cfonsultation should be done if symptoms like excessive irritability dullness loss of appetite less urine output is there .

For urself u can take dolo 650 for fever.
Repeat the dose after six hours if fever comes again ..
Viral fever can take around 3-5 days to subside.
if no other symptoms then no need to worry.
