I should search really but i don't want to be on MN at the mo.
DS1 has very high temp, have given 1st dose of ibuprofen and ABs as well as a sponge down with cold water. he is in bed in vest and pants but what other ways are there for reducing temp effectively?
At the DRs earlier his temp (on forehead strip) was 38.5. I took his temp with in ear thermometer at 6 and it was 39.3. There has been no increase or reduction yet (took it again half an hour ago).
