Patient's question:
The baby was blown by the wind during the day and suddenly had a fever at night. The body is very hot, but the hands and feet are not. There is medicine at home, and a little was given to eat. I forgot how to mix and match the medicine, so could you please take a look if these three things are okay?Doctor's answer:
Baby has a fever, most of which is caused by viral infections. If the temperature is below 38.2 degrees, physical cooling is necessary. Use warm water to bathe the neck, armpits, groin, popliteal fossa, etc. If the temperature is > 38.5 degrees, oral antipyretics can be taken. If the high fever persists, it is necessary to go to the hospital for a follow-up examination, check blood routine and CRP, to determine the type of infection, so as to carry out targeted treatment.
