Question
Is a temperature of 35.5°C normal for a child with a cold?
Answer
A temperature of 35.5°C for a child with a cold may not be normal. Typically, a child’s body temperature above 37°C indicates a fever. It is recommended to give the child Children’s Paracetamol and Phenylephrine Granules, drink plenty of water, and keep warm. If the situation does not improve, intravenous treatment may be necessary. Also, maintain good hygiene habits and avoid letting the child picky eat to help them build a strong immune system.
