What are the reasons for fever after childbirth

Patient's question:

Currently it's the tenth day postpartum, and I have a fever. What should the doctor do? It's an adult, so they can't take medicine, otherwise the baby can't drink milk. Can the doctor provide some suggestions? Thank you.

Doctor's answer:

On the tenth day postpartum, the mother has a fever, but the temperature is unknown. It is necessary to go to the hospital to determine the cause—whether it is due to postpartum infection or other reasons. Currently, she is breastfeeding, and it is possible to take medication. Intravenous penicillin can be administered for antibacterial treatment. This is the complete introduction to the question, "What advice should be given if the mother has a fever on the tenth day postpartum?" Finally, we wish the patient a speedy recovery and a healthy life.
