Patient's question:
In the afternoon, the baby suddenly had a high fever. Even after taking fever-reducing medicine, there was still some fever. However, by night, the baby's hands and feet became cold and they were shivering all over. They kept saying they were cold. After about an hour, they seemed to be feverish all over again, saying it was very hot, very hot. What should I do? Urgent, urgent, urgent.Doctor's answer:
There are many reasons why a child can have a fever. Is it possible that excessive exercise during the day and sweating led to a sudden drop in temperature, causing a high fever at night? In this case, you can bathe the baby with lukewarm water, paying special attention to the armpits. Do not bundle the baby too tightly. Give the child some fever-reducing granules and measure their temperature frequently with a thermometer. If they sweat quickly after taking the medicine, that's a good sign. This indicates that the body is releasing heat and should recover quickly. After sweating, it's essential to remember to change the child into dry clothes to prevent discomfort.
