Fever in baby 10 months
HI,
MY baby is 10 months old and 8.2kgs. She got fever and cold 1 day back. Gave her calpol syrup for fever and visited the pediatrician who suggested to continue the same medication along with striveo syrup in the morning and night for cold.
Her cold seems to be reduced now but fever is still high.
Could you please know the further action.
Also, I'm giving her sponge bath now and then to bring down the temp.
