How to deal with high fever from infantile roseola

Patient's question:

The baby is 11 and a half months old. Due to a high fever and convulsions caused by infantile roseola, they were hospitalized on the 3rd at midnight. They were discharged on the 6th. That day at 3 PM, they ate a small bowl of noodles, and at 7 PM, they consumed 90ml of formula milk, with one breastfeeding session in between! Around 9 PM, they were breastfed again, and shortly after taking a nap, they vomited twice. At 4 AM that night, they vomited once more. We believe it was due to overeating, so we didn’t consult a doctor about the daytime situation. Therefore, on the 7th, they were given very little food during the day, and everything was normal. On the 8th, the day was also fine, but at night, they vomited again at 1:30 AM and 2:00 AM. Although the amount was less than before (only 2 mouthfuls), this time it should not be due to overeating. We thought about going to the hospital tomorrow to see.

Doctor's answer:

According to the situation you described, infantile roseola is generally caused by viral infection. And this season is when children often suffer from nausea and vomiting in autumn and winter, which is also brought on by viruses. Its typical symptoms include dry cough, nausea and vomiting, fever, and even watery stools. The above advice is for the question "What should I do if my baby has high fever and vomiting from infantile roseola?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
