A. Fever is when the temperature of the body goes above 99 degree fahrenheit and the safest medicine in such situation is paracetamol which can be repeatfted after 6 hours again if required in a proper dose . Alternative medicine can also be tried if required like ibuprofen and mefenamic acid preparations. cold sponging of the whole body with tap water can be beneficial too to bring the temperature down .

A. Yes Sometimes the child can get fever a little late also maybe a day or two later after that so I think mostly just due to the vaccination that you got done so continue with the medicine that the doctor has given you start doing cold sponging on the body that will help in reducing down the fever as well
