Patient's question:
Recently, my boss said that I'm not in good spirits, which has affected my work performance. Actually, I didn't mean to, either. I often can't sleep at night and sometimes feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm worried it will affect my health and work.What physical therapy methods can be used fastest for a fever of 38°C in an 8-month-old baby?
Doctor's answer:
A child having a fever is a common phenomenon, usually caused by a cold. Since a child's body temperature regulation center is not yet fully developed, it is easily affected by external factors, leading to fluctuations in body temperature. Generally, it is recommended not to exceed 38 degrees Celsius, as medication is not necessary. Physical cooling methods should be prioritized, such as applying alcohol to the body and washing the face and forehead with warm water. If the temperature exceeds 38 degrees Celsius, ibuprofen suspension or naproxen can usually be taken.
