I gave my baby cough, catarrh and cold syrup and the cough stopped in 1day to my surprise. Take your baby to the hospital

How did you check the temperature?

Hand feeling can be deceptive. There is a need to measure the temperature with digital thermometer.

Anything between 36.5 and 37.5 is normal.

If above 37.5, give paracetamol to start with before going to the hospital.
