Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy1 Year agoA. 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 as fever and give paracetamol.x
higher medicines for fever like ibugesic and mefenamic has to be given only after medical consultation.
after giving fever medicines you can wait for maximum 3 days and thxen meet your doctor if it is not improving. keep the child in cool atmosphere

RashmiMom of a 10 yr 11 m old girl1 Year agoA. You are doing so good already the temperature is 101°F from 103 so that’s going good yet if you see that the fever does not totally subside by the time of 72 hours and in that case you may go with further assessment but right now this is the best thing that you are doing
