A. yes, if armpit temperature record more than 100 F than it's fever.. Use paracetamol in proper dose for fever and repeat every 4 hours if required. If not improvement and accompanied by other symptoms like vomiting or loose motions or breathlessness or dullness, poor intake consult your paediatrician asap.
