Patient's question:
How much body temperature is considered normal for a baby? 37.1 degrees. We adults measured it and it was only 36.5 degrees. Is it a bit high? Should we go to the hospital?Past treatment history and effectiveness: None
What kind of help is needed: How to solve whether to go to the hospital or not
Doctor's answer:
Generally below 37.2 degrees Celsius is a fever, but now it's a high fever. It usually adjusts to normal on its own, with no other symptoms, and it's not a big problem. It doesn't exceed 38 degrees Celsius, and there's no need for fever-reducing medication. You don't need to worry too much. It's recommended to pay attention to giving the baby more fluids during this time, to be cautious about proper warmth, and to closely monitor the situation. If there are any abnormal symptoms, it's necessary to go to the hospital for a check-up and use medication if needed.
