Oral temperature is no longer recommended and it is always higher than axillary temp.
If child is active feeling well and eating well don't worry at all.
Make sure child is getting adequate sleep .
Next Steps
puffiness should subside , but in case it increases , esp decreased urine output or palpitations, do consult a doctor.
Health Tips
don't worry it seems child is okay.
