My 2 year old daughter had fever for two days and then she is feeling better now. But her body feels cold and when I checked the temperature it is 94.8 in armpit. Which i believe is 95.8 actually since we add 1 degree to the armpit temperature. Should i be worried? Please suggest

Don't worry. Temperature more than 99.5 is fever.

No need to add 1 degree to armpit. Stop unnecessary paracetamol if it is being given. Encourage more liquids.
