Brief Answer:
What is her temperature?

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this fever your kid has. As a concerned mom, this can be disturbing to handle. I will like to know what the temperature of this baby is. However, fever in children(more than 38.5C) is manage with paracetamol. She can take 150mg of paracetamol/Tylenol every 8hours to get this controlled.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
