Q.

My 3 month old baby has 100.2 fever. She is feeding and sleeping well. Should I wait for sometime before giving her paracetamol drop or I should give it right away. How do I know it is a fever from cold or some underlying infection is there. What are the signs.

A. there is no need to use any paracetamol to the baby if the temperature is less than hundred degrees Fahrenheit Fever in the baby is because of the response of the body to any foreign infection there will be rise of temperature to fight against the infection treat the baby with paracetamol only if the temperature is more than hundred degrees Fahrenheit
