Hi,

It seems your children were exposed to some viral patient a few days back. Got the symptoms depending on their resistance power.

Give all of them Paracetamol(dose according to their age) 6 hourly. Let them take rest, eat nourishing food, drink sufficient water, juices, soups.

Incase fever increases/ they get a cough, cold or any other additional symptom or the fever is not controlled within 3-5 days consult a pediatrician.

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

Take care

Regards,
Dr Vasudha Jayant Athavale, General & Family Physician
