How to Relieve a Baby's Fever

Patient's question:

What kinds of diseases can pediatric surgery treat, and which symptoms belong to pediatric internal medicine? How can you relieve a baby's fever?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, fever is a defensive response. If the body temperature is below 38.5 degrees, there is no need for antipyretic treatment. Rest, keep warm, and drink plenty of warm water. If the body temperature is above 38.5 degrees, you can take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for symptomatic treatment, and physical cooling methods can also be applied.
Children have weaker immune systems, so they are more prone to pediatric general surgery conditions. For parents, don't panic. It's important to take the child to a regular hospital for examination and treatment in a timely manner. Additionally, routine check-ups should be conducted for the child, and medication should be taken under the guidance of a doctor.
