A. 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 asx fever and give paracetamol. higher medicines for fever like ibugesic and mefenamic has to be given only after medical consultation. after giving feverx medicines you can wait for maximum 3 days and then meet your doctor if it is not improving. keep the child in cool atmosphere

A. hello since the child is small it would be better to check with your doctor and you can also put paracetamol for fever but since the child is also having headache e and if it is more it would be better to check with your doctor and she will be able to guide you better on examination of the same and advisor accordingly which is safe
