A. Fever is a reaction of the body to different pyrogens released during any Infection. Usually temp more than 99 F is taken as fever . Mostly in children fever is because of viral infections like flu or RSV where the fever is there for 4-5 days but may persist even upto 2 weeks . Initially antipyretic like paracetamol is given in a dose of 15 mg / kg/ dose. Can be repeated after 4-6 hrs if needed . Lukewarm sponge bath can be given as home remedy to decreasge fever. Adequatefr fluid intake is also beneficial. Urine output monitoring is necessary to avoid dehydration .

Sometimes did you to getting too much exertion into the body also much I can suffer with it is completely normal and also right now honest if you look at the weather is also not favourable maybe which is why your child has got fever suddenly so you can continue with the medication that you are giving as of now and hopefully over the period the child should feel betterWrite Your Answer Here
