A. 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 hundrded or more is considered as fever to body sponge to decrease the surface temperature and should be carried out for at least 20 minutes with normal temperature water. highedr medicines (ibugesic / meftal-p) whether required or not will be told by the doctor.

A. If a child has a fever over 38° C (100° F) it usually means he has an infection. Fever may help your child fight an illness. Fever may occur after an infant or child has an immunization. In general, the child's behaviour tells more about the severity of the illness than the degree of the fever.
