If your child has fever for about 2 days or 2 days plus and no localizing symptoms take him or her to a pediatrician and get him checked out. You may have to do some blood tests and if the doctor advises the child to be admitted, please do so. We try and control fever only with paracetamol and avoid brufen, meftal because they may interfere with platelet aggregation and platelet function. Encourage to drink lot of fluids. Please avoid carbonated beverages. Many people say papaya leaves and kiwi fruit, but scientifically there is no proof that it will help in dengue. If the child is not having a good appetite, don’t forcefully feed the child with papaya leaf juice and kiwi juice.
