A. not needed when you take the temperature in the armpit of the child with the help of a digital thermometer and if it is 100 f (37.7 c) or more then you consider it as fever or when you take the temperature in the oral cavity . of the child afnd if it is 99 degree fahrenheit then you consider it as fever and then paracetamol is given. along with paracetamol continue body sponge and keep the child in light clothes.

A. No Why do you want to unnecessarily give these jobs to the child when your child is not having fever I think you’re not aware about it that meant the temperature crosses 99° fahrenheit then only it is termed as fever and then only you can give medicine to the child as of now it’s a very normal temperature
