Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy3 years agoA. when you take the temperature in the armpit of the child with the help of a digital thermometer and if it is 100 F or more then you consider it as fever or when you take the temperature in the oral cavity of the child and if it is 99 degree fahrenheit then you consider it as fever and then Paracetamol is given
For FEVER as well as PAIN kindly give paracetamol according to the weight of child as well as according to the power of paracetamol medicine you are having and paracetamol can be given maximum 4 times per day and also do body sponge to decrease the surface temperature.
Also when u take temperature in the armpit of the child and it is 100 or more then only consider it as fever and give Paracetamol.
higher medicines for fever like ibugesic and mefenamic has to be given only after medical consultation
This can occur due to weather changes or simple cold
kindly give nasal saline drops every three hourly and since it is a salt water it does not have any side effects and can be given again and again for nasal blockage and try to prevent temperature variations on the child and you can also give indirect steam inhalation and if there is no improvement in 2 or 3 days then meet your doctor
RashmiMom of a 10 yr 11 m old girl3 years agoA. Give Paracetamol to the child and put nasal drops into the nose of your child that will help in opening up the blockage give indirect steam to the child for at least 10 minutes that will also help and lastly I would say that start doing cold sponging on the body specially for head and you should also do it behind the knees that will help in bringing the temperature down
