Patient's question:
The baby is only 8 months old and keeps having sudden fevers without any warning signs. It's always low-grade fever, and whenever I use the infant fever suppository rectally, it helps. But then he'll have recurring fevers throughout the day, with no other symptoms except for the fever. Should I take him to the hospital? But when we do, his fever disappears. I'm at a loss of what to do. Just now, after using the fever suppository, he broke out in a full-body sweat, and I don't know what to do. His clothes are all soaked. Should I add more clothes or give him a quick bath, afraid he'll catch a cold from the sweat? It's even a bit chilly this morning!Doctor's answer:
Dear consultant, first of all, your question is not very clear. Is the fever intermittent for a long time, or just for these last one or two days? If it's just for these last one or two days, it's usually not a problem. This is quite normal. The fever comes and goes, and when it goes down, it proves that the condition is not fully under control. The above content is the entire answer to the question: "What should I do if my 8-month-old baby suddenly has a fever without any symptoms?" I hope the patient can get rid of the disease and recover soon.
