Patient's question:
I am 36 years old this year, and I have recently been feeling unwell. During the day, I sometimes feel dizzy, and it has affected my work. I can't sleep at night, and the medicine I took doesn't seem to work well. Could you please tell me which part of the body should be used to measure a baby's temperature?Doctor's answer:
The measurement of human body temperature is more accurate the closer it is to the inside of the body, meaning rectal temperature is closest to the normal body temperature, but it is not convenient to operate. Next is armpit temperature. Children are prone to diarrhea because their digestive systems are not yet fully developed. While taking medication, pay attention to dietary hygiene, regularity, and avoid overly cold foods. Children's bodies have weaker resistance, so they are more susceptible to pediatric general surgery conditions. For parents, do not panic. It is important to take the child to a specialized hospital for examination and treatment in a timely manner. Additionally, regular check-ups should be conducted for the child, and medication should be administered according to the doctor's guidance.
