Hi,

As per your query, your child has symptoms of fever which seems to be due to viral infection.

Need not to worry about it. Give your child paracetamol and along with that do tepid sponging in between depending on the intensity of fever. Give child diet rich in multivitamins. Avoid giving any cold beverages and intake of outside food. Visit pediatrician to find out the cause of fever after a thorough investigation. If required request your pediatrician for any lab tests which may be required and start treatment as per that. You can give Crocin as well every 4-6 hourly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari, Dentist
