A. 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 fahrenhdeit 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. See the temperature of the body is quite normal it’s 98.6°F that means it’s a normal body temperature if the child is having loose motions maybe slowly the temperature is going to rise so if you see it touching 99 then you can immediately give paracetamol to the child and please consult your paediatrician in the morning
