It is completely normal to feel worried when your little one's fever keeps returning, but please be reassured that this is a common way the body fights off viral infections. Crocin (paracetamol) temporarily lowers the temperature but does not cure the underlying cold, which is why the fever returns as the medicine wears off. Focus on keeping him comfortable and well-hydrated. You can use saline nasal drops to help soothe his runny nose. If the fever lasts more than three days, or if he becomes very lethargic, refuses fluids, or struggles to breathe, please have him evaluated by his pediatrician.
