Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 5 m old boy1 Year agoA. the first medicine will always be paracetamol and it is given according to weight and power of paracetamol medicine you are having.
give liquids and easily digestible food and paracetamol should be given only after food.
keep the child in cool environment and avoid using woolen clothes when the child is having fever
armpit temperature of hundred or more is considered as fever
to body sponge to decrease the surface temperature and should be carriedd out for at least 20 minutes with normal temperature water.
higher medicines (ibugesic / meftal-p) whether required or not will be told by the doctor.

RashmiMom of a 11 yr old girl1 Year agoA. Usually the fever is subside within maximum 72 hours and if it doesn’t subside then you may have to go for further testing to know whether it is a regular fever viral or it could be typhoid or anything because these fever are also spreading these days so better to continue with the medication and check with the doctor after 72 hours
