Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hi,

Thank you for your query.

I would recommend that you remove flannels if your daughter has a temperature of 37.9C. Keep her in a comfortable environment and do not overclothe her. By overclothing you are not allowing the heat to dissipate and the temperature to fall down.

Swollen eyes and running nose means that your daughter is having some infection which needs to be addressed. Kindly request your doctor for a re-examination of the child and management accordingly.

I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction.

Wishing your daughter an early recovery.

Regards,
