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 remgedy to decrease fever. Adequate fluid intake is also beneficial. Urine output monitoring is necgessary to avoid dehydration .

A. Mustard Oil Infused With Rock Salt The warmth that mustard oil provides helps in relieving congestion of the throat. Take 1 to 2 tablespoons of lukewarm mustard oil and mix half a teaspoon of rock salt to it. Massage this oil gently on the baby’s chest and back and cover with a cotton cloth to provide warmth.
