A. Fever is a response of the body to any kind of infection or any inflammatory process in body so you can give paracetamol in a dose of 15 mg/kg/dose as the first line treatment also this dose can be again repeated after every 5 to 6 hours if again required and you can also do cold sponging of the body to reduce feverp the child has done vomiting you can give syrup vomikind 5 ml first and then after half an hour give other medicines

A. good morning until and unless the temperature reaches hundred you don't actually have to visit your pediatrician you can simply repeat the dosage after an interval of around 6 hours and see the result
