Patient's question:
Doctor, the baby has a fever of 38.6 degrees, can he drink this? The one I bought before was pink, but today this one is white. Can the baby eat it?Doctor's answer:
First, give the baby more water, and use alcohol to wipe the palms, soles of the feet, armpits, and popliteal fossa. Fever is often a symptom of acute upper respiratory tract infection, with 90% being viral infections. When the temperature is above 38.5°C, give fever-reducing medication containing ibuprofen or acetaminophen for symptomatic treatment. If there is no improvement after 2-3 days, blood tests and C-reactive protein tests can be conducted to assist in diagnosis and treatment. If bacterial infection is present, antibiotics should be added for anti-infection treatment.
