What is the reason for a low fever in an eight-month-old child without coughing or a runny nose?

Patient's question:

An eight-month-old child has just a low fever recently for the past two days, without coughing or a runny nose, what could be the cause?

Doctor's answer:

Considering the possibility of a bacterial infection, it is recommended to use antibiotics such as penicillin, cephalosporins, and antiviral medications like acyclovir granules. Additionally, Meilin oral liquid can be used to reduce fever. Rest and drink plenty of water, and avoid getting cold. Children have weaker immune systems, so they are more prone to pediatric general surgery issues. For parents, it is important not to panic and take their child to a top-tier hospital for examination and treatment promptly. Also, regular check-ups should be conducted for the child, and medications should be used under the guidance of a doctor.
