Most fevers can be managed at home with simple measures. Ensure the child stays hydrated by offering plenty of fluids like water, oral rehydration solutions, or clear broths. Dress the child in lightweight clothing and keep the room cool. Over-the-counter medications like acetaminophen or ibuprofen can be used to reduce fever and alleviate discomfort, but always follow the dosage instructions on the label or consult your healthcare provider for guidance.
