What should I do if my baby is particularly hot when sleeping at night?

Patient's question:

The baby is one and a half years old this year. Last night, while taking a nap, I noticed the baby was very hot. I checked the temperature, and it was 38 degrees Celsius, so I gave the baby fever-reducing medicine. Then around 7 a.m., I took the baby to the clinic for a shot. After an hour, the baby stopped feeling hot, but in the afternoon, the baby started crying very hard and wouldn’t let anyone hold it except for Mom. A while later, the baby was still crying. I want to know what’s wrong with the baby.

Doctor's answer:

Most cases of babies having a fever are caused by viral or bacterial infections. It is best to have a doctor examine them to check the throat, listen to the heart and lungs, and identify the cause. It is recommended that you take good care of the baby, ensure they drink an appropriate amount of water, and monitor their temperature. It is best to take them to the hospital for a doctor's examination to find the cause and provide targeted treatment. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery, a healthy body, and a wonderful life.
