Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children1 Year agoA. 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 repefuated after 4-6 hrs if needed .
Lukewarm sponge bath can be given as home remedy to decreafse fever.
Adequate fluid intake is also beneficial.
Urine output monitoring is necessary to avoid dehydration .
RashmiMom of a 11 yr old girl1 Year agoA. If the fever is repeating in 9 to 10 hours that means there is no dengue malaria it will not even typhoid because when the problem is something like this the fever repeat every 3 to 4 hours but it could be due to an infection in the Sumz so better check with your doctor please
