Hi!
I can understand your apprehensions. If your son’s temperature is not coming down then you give him a warm water bath or do whole body sponging with water at room temperature. Also please check if the fever medication dose is sufficient for his age and weight. Your local pharmacist or the label on the medication bottle may help your figure that out. Also, probably your son will need a course of antibiotics. Take care!
