A. your history tells us that the child is suffering from viral fever and in viral fever you have to give only symptomatic treatment that is for fever have to give paracetamol(max 4 times pzer day if needed) and plenty of water to drink and at least 60 to 70% of the regular diet and if the fever continues beyond 3 days then meet the doctor please do body sponge that is body wiping to decrease the body temperature with wet cotton cloth.

A. Give liquids to the child if your child is comfortable in having that because during the time of fever it is very important that you be comforting food to the child and if the child is taking paracetamol and the child is going to sleep and still if you face any further problem then you should consult your doctor once
