Neurological damage due to fever

Question

Asked for Female, 30 Years

My son is 7 months 14 days old. From last 2 days he is having high fever of 102.2. I am giving him medicine 'noble plus' for fever, 'montair' for cough and nasal drop for running nose. After medicine the temperature is normal and within 4 hrs the body temperature is back to 102.2. Would this all affect him mentally?? I have heard that children below 1 year of age of get fever they get mentally ill. Will my son also get neurological damage?? I am extremely worried. What should I do.
