Patient's question:
What should I do if my baby has a fever at four and a half months? The check showed it's viral, and it's very urgent. This is the first time the baby has a fever. At 6:00 AM, the temperature was 38.2°C, and then at 5:00 PM, it was 38.2°C again. The baby has had two fever episodes in one day and has also had diarrhea five times. Medication has been given, but the fever keeps recurring. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Children with fever, nausea, and vomiting are preliminarily considered to be caused by viral gastroenteritis and other factors. After a detailed and thorough examination, active treatment should be initiated. Daily diet should be appropriate, and nursing care should be enhanced to prevent adverse effects. Vitamin C should be digested, and drugs such as ribavirin and xylosulfan should be used in the early stage. If the fever is too high, ibuprofen granules can be used, and physical cooling should be combined. For nausea and vomiting, montmorillonite and tannalbin can be used. The above information is for reference.
