A. 99degree is considered normal.. still its important to consult your paediatrician for proper examination of the child and start treatment if required. maintain proper hygiene at home.. there should be some one to look after the child

A. Hello ma’am Fever is not contagious so don’t worry about it but yes if the temperature has cross 99° then to be more sure about it and to be on the safer side it would be best for you to give one dose of paracetamol to the child and if the fever comes out eventually late hours then it is fine but if it increases then give a second dosage after eight hours again
