Pediatrician, Neonatology 's  Response
He is most probably suffering from a viral fever. Syr paracetamol when temp crosses 100F is all that is required. The fever will continue for 3-4 days. Just give her sponging paracetamol and whatever food she is taking for this duration. With time she will start to become better. Dont worry with the teething.
