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 a proguhper dose . Alternative medicine can also be tried if required like ibuprofen and mefenamic acid preparations.v cold sponging of the whole body with tap water can be beneficial too to bring the temperature down .

A. No you should give medicine to the child only when your child wakes up because if your child is sleeping peacefully as of now that means your child is comfortable when the discomfort is going to be there your child will wake up and that’s the time you should give medicine as of now if you want you can do cold sponging
