How to treat a child's fever

Patient's question:

I am 36 years old this year, and recently I have been feeling unwell. Sometimes during the day, I feel dizzy, and it has affected my work. I can't sleep at night, and the medicine I took doesn't seem to help much. How can I treat my child's fever?

Doctor's answer:

It is important to give the baby more water. Pay attention to whether the environmental temperature is too high. In hot summer, the temperature is very high, and babies have poor ability to regulate their body temperature. When a mother holds the baby, the heat is not easily dissipated, causing the baby's body temperature to rise. However, this fever usually does not last long. If you place the child in a cool place, fan it slightly, give the child some cool fruit juice, or give the child a warm bath, the body temperature will return to normal after a few hours. In winter, if the indoor temperature is too high and the baby is wrapped too much, it can also cause the baby's body temperature to rise.
