Suggest Remedy For High Fever In An Infant
My baby is suffering from high fever( around 102) for last two days. She has no cough & cold or acidity problem or anything else as per the diagnosis of lacal homeopath doctor. My baby is 1 yr old. For last three moths or so, homeopathy treatment suits her for simple problems like cough & cold etc. But at present the prescribed medicine (homeo) is not working specially in this case. She has no other problem as such appart from this high fever. Pls suggest.
