Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children3 years agoA. 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 sgyponge bath can be given as home remedy to decreaseh fever.
Adequate fluid intake is also beneficial.
Urine output monitoring is necessary to avoid dehydration .

RashmiMom of a 11 yr old girl3 years agoA. Sometimes due to fever a child is very irritated so it’s completely normal and you can go ahead with giving paracetamol or any other medicine that you are giving to the child right now that’s what is going to make a sound a little browsing and probably with that only the child is going to sleep well enoughWrite Your Answer Here
