[|Human|] Hi my 2 year old since yesterday night has had a high temp we tried to bring it down but couldn t so rang out of hours and theh took her into hospital, managed to get her temp down from 39.4 to 37.5 so they let us take her home. Today she has a temperature again and we can t get it below 38.1, around 15 minutes ago she started twitching a little bit mainly in her legs (she was asleep) her temperature is now 38.6. Please help. Thankyou.
[|AI|]  Hi, Thank you for asking question on Chat Doctor. Irrespective of the cause the temperature has to be brought down immediately lest she may go into febrile convulsions. Paracetamol 15 mg/kg body weight 4-6 hourly along with tepid sponging will bring down temperature quickly. Then consult pediatrician to investigate and arrive at a diagnosis. Hope this answer will serve your purposeless feel free to ask any more queries if requiredTake care Chat Doctor. V. Subrahmanyam MD;Disassociate professor of pediatrics.
