A. Fever is when the temperature of the body goes above 99 degree fahrenheit and the safest medicine in such situation is paracetamol which can be repeated after 6 hours again if required in uua proper dose . Alternative medicine can also be tried if required like ibuprofen and mefenamic acid preparations. cold sponging of the whole body with tap water can be beneficial too to bring thje temperature down .

A. See the medicines that you are giving him must be having paracetamol which is why the child could be sleeping more and the congestion medicines that you like for cold and cough also have slight paracetamol into them so probably that’s why the child is sleeping more and still if the problem is not in control within two or three days I would suggest you to go for further testing
