Hello

The baby might have virosis. Wait for fever to get down. If not after 3 days should check again. Sometimes, ear infection can give the same symptoms.

Keep well hydrated. Give water with oral rehydration salts and juice.

Apply nasal saline solution if blocked or congested nose.


Hope this helps.

Hello,

It could be upper respiratory tract viral infection.

Hydration should be maintained and sos anti pyretic can be prescribed.

If no improvement in 3-5 days than CBC can be done and further physical examination needed.

Hope this will help

Hii,
with fever what other symptoms
is she taking milk ?
is she vomiting after taking milk ?
is her nose blocked ?
diarrhea?
crying too much?
For now give her crocin and Advil every 6 hours alternately. if its too high we can give suppository.
Ask mother to give milk and water regularly she should not get dehydrated also if its too high try lukewarm water sponging. and we can observe for 2 to 3 days and then can treat accordingly

if child refuse to take orally n irritable or if fever not subsided within 3 to 4 day then go to Pediatrician and do blood report accordingly.
