Patient's question:
A child just born doesn't know what's going on, there are always red spots on their body, and they are spitting up milk. Which fever reducer works well for babies?Doctor's answer:
Generally, fever is a defensive response. If the body temperature is below 38.5 degrees, there is no need for antipyretic treatment. Rest and keep warm, and drink plenty of warm water. If the body temperature is above 38.5 degrees, you can take ibuprofen preparations or acetaminophen for symptomatic treatment, and physical cooling treatment can also be done.If the child is troubled by neonatal diseases, parents must take the child to the hospital for immediate medical treatment to avoid blindly using medication to relieve symptoms. For parents, it is important to give the child enough care and attention and to do everything possible to help the child receive timely medical treatment for the illness.
