Most fevers in children are viral in origin and take 3-7 days to subside completely. If not accompanied by any other symptoms like vomiting or loose motions or coughing and breathlessness or dullness and refusal to feed,just give paracetamol for fever and repeat every 4 hours if required. Don't give any medicine on empty stomach,unless specified by the doctor. If not improving OR accompanied by above,consult your paediatrician.
