My 1 year old daughter has had an elevated temp for 16 hours now (above 38) Half an hour ago she had a temp of 39.4 (measured orally with a digital). I removed her clothes, sponged her limbs and breastfed her. I also gave her more panado infant drops. Her temperature has now dropped to 38.6. What should I do?
That was good .all what you did is good You have to give her antipyretic regularly each 6-8 hours for at least 2-3days until the temperature is going to be normal Her clothes must be cotton and light .the water bath for the lower part of the body is more useful lower temperature under 38 before giving the dose of antipyretic
