Baby has low body temperature and is sweating coldly, how to handle it

Patient's question:

My baby is now about 8 months old? A few days ago, he suddenly had a high fever? He went to the outpatient clinic to get a fever-reducing shot, but soon after, he got fever again? Later, he went to the hospital for a blood test? The doctor said it was a viral infection? After getting an intravenous drip, the fever subsided? But in the evening, he developed diarrhea? His stool was very watery with a lot of liquid? He had a bowel movement every hour? The next morning, he was taken back to the hospital? The doctor said it was seasonal diarrhea? After getting another intravenous drip, the diarrhea improved? His spirits improved a lot that day? But in the morning of the next day, his fever rose to 39.4 degrees? He was immediately taken to the local health station for two fever-reducing shots? The doctor prescribed some traditional Chinese medicine and antiviral oral liquid? Soon after, the fever subsided? Then, in the evening and until now

Doctor's answer:

??Hello, based on your description, the current condition of the baby is mainly drowsiness and cold sweat. The main reason for low body temperature is due to sweating. According to the symptoms, it is still mainly caused by an incomplete recovery from a cold. It is recommended to give the baby traditional Chinese medicine for cold treatment, such as Xiao'er Ganmao Granules. Additionally, pay attention to keeping the baby warm, avoid drafts, and do not overfeed the baby, as the baby is currently sick and digestion is affected, which can easily lead to food stagnation. If food stagnation turns into heat, symptoms such as fever, flushed cheeks, and vomiting may occur.
