If your child is active between febrile episodes with no other danger signs like fast breathing, difficulty in breathing,rash,loose stools,vomiting and convulsions then you can wait for 3 days.You can continue paracetamol. Don't give paracetamol more than 4 times in a day.Give more liquids to prevent dehydration
