Buy a thermometer. It is very cheap and available at your local pharmacy.
If the temperature in the axilla after 3 minutes is more than 100F, it is called fever.
If the child has fever, please send me their age and weight and I'll let you know the dose for paracetamol, and I'd need to evaluate further for cause of fever.
