Thanks for putting up your query at Chat Doctor. I am sorry that your son is not doing well. Had I known your sons age and weight, I would have been in a better position to guide you. If your doctor is talking about something like heat stroke, it requires direct exposure to the sun. Unless you mention that it is difficult for me to comment. As of now, you have to keep the temperature in control. You may use cold sponging where you are supposed to sponge the child using water of normal temperature. You may use Cronin (paracetamol) or Eugenic Plus which are generally given at interval of at least 3-4 hours and can be given up to 4 times a day. It would be best to consult your doctor directly however. I hope that helps. Feel free to revert with further queries if any.
