It is very common for a fever to return as the paracetamol (Calpol) wears off after five to six hours. Since the fever has lasted for three days, it is important to have your baby evaluated by a pediatrician to find the underlying cause. In the meantime, keep him hydrated with plenty of fluids, dress him in lightweight clothing, and continue using paracetamol as directed on the packaging. Please seek immediate medical care if he becomes very lethargic, has difficulty breathing, or refuses fluids.

An underarm temperature of 98 to 99?F is actually completely normal for a nine-month-old baby. Since he has no fever, cough, or cold, there is no need to give him Calpol (paracetamol) right now. For future reference, paracetamol dosing depends on the liquid's strength. For an 11 kg baby, 5 mL of infant Calpol (120 mg/5 mL) is a safe dose if a true fever (above 100.4?F) develops. Avoid giving medication unless necessary.

While mild fevers can occur after the MMR vaccine, they typically develop 7 to 12 days later. A fever of 103.4?F two days post-vaccine, even while giving Calpol (paracetamol), warrants a quick visit to your pediatrician. This helps rule out other common childhood infections and ensures he is on the right track. Please continue keeping him hydrated, dress him in lightweight clothing, and monitor his activity levels. Seeking a professional evaluation will give you peace of mind and ensure he gets the best care.

While your little boy received more paracetamol (Calpol) than recommended for his weight of 7.7 kg, try not to panic. Because this exceeds the safe daily limit, there is a risk of liver strain. It is very important to seek medical advice right away. Please contact your pediatrician, local hospital, or poison control immediately. Have the bottle ready so you can tell them the exact times of the doses. They will guide you on the next steps to ensure he is perfectly safe and healthy.

If your child's fever has lasted for three days despite taking paracetamol, it is important to consult a pediatrician for a proper evaluation. A persistent fever can sometimes indicate an underlying infection that may require specific treatment, which paracetamol alone cannot cure. In the meantime, ensure your child stays well-hydrated with plenty of fluids, wears lightweight clothing, and rests in a comfortable room. You can continue giving paracetamol strictly as per the prescribed dosage and timing. Please seek immediate medical attention if your child becomes unusually lethargic, has difficulty breathing, develops a rash, or is unable to keep fluids down.

Please be reassured that fever is simply her body fighting the infection, and the antibiotic can take 24 to 48 hours to show effects. Ensure you are giving the correct dose of Calpol (paracetamol) based on her weight, spaced at least 4 to 6 hours apart. In the meantime, keep her hydrated with plenty of fluids, dress her in light clothing, and gently sponge her with lukewarm water. If she becomes very lethargic, has trouble breathing, or the fever stays high after 3 days, please contact her pediatrician right away.
