[|Human|] My 9 1/2 month old daughter has a temp of 39.2 and a runny nose. She is happy to sit and let me wash her down with cool water. But she is fairly happy within herself. She has a little cough which she normally seems to get when shes teething , and she is teething just now. She is talking away and drinking water. I have given her some baby paracetemol (calpol) to help bring her temp down. Do u have any suggestions?? What it could be?
[|AI|]  Thanks for asking I have gone through your question. Your 9.5 month daughter having fever of 39.2, with running nose. She is playful Most fever with running nose are due to viral illness. Generally it takes 3-5 days to recover. If I would your pediatrician, I advised you what you're taking already baby paracetamol. Dose of paracetamol is 15 mg per kg per dose. Can be given up to 4 times per day. I baby is having discomfort with running nose I would suggest spy cetirizine 1.25 ml twice a day for three days.  It is myth that people correlate symptoms of loose motions, fever or running nose with teething, There is no correlation found in modern medicine. Process of teething is continuous generally from 6 months to 2.5 year of age.  Your child should recover with above mention medicine. And not to forget to MMR vaccine that should be given at completed 9 months of age thanks
