Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy1 Year agoA. 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
it is important to confirm whether it is normal stool or the child is suffering from a loose motions / diarrhea.
if there is change in consistency to watery end of frequency of stool passage is increased then it is loose motion.
give ors for every episode of loose motion. and do not give any sugar food as well as do not give any milk product (can give curd and butter milk)
give sachet econorm twice daily. mix in 10ml water and give.e
if there is no improvement then please make your doctor in two days
