A. yes seen with fever in children. when you take the temperature in the armpit of the child with the help of a digital thermometer and if it is 99 f (37 c) or more then you consider it as fever or when you take the temperature in the oral cavity of the child and if it is 100 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. paracetamol can be repeated maximum four times per day

A. Then you can give paracetamol to your child that is going to be good in reducing down fever but before you give any medicine check with the thermometer if the temperature is 99°F then only you should give medicine otherwise Just do cold sponging will reduce down the temperature
