Always mention weight. Keep a temperature record. Give syrup crocin (240 ) 3 ml as needed every 6 hours. If fever doesn't reduce with that, give syrup Meftal P 3ml. Any other symptoms? It fever recurs, consult again. Just having hot head if fever not recorded may mean vitamin D deficiency and not much more.
