Patient's question:
I don't know what's going on, but my child has been misbehaving lately and crying non-stop. Even the hospital check-up didn't help. Could you please explain what causes a baby to have a fever at night?Doctor's answer:
Hello, such a situation is often considered infectious fever, which may be caused by viral or bacterial infection. Physical cooling measures should be taken, such as applying cold compresses to the forehead. If the temperature exceeds 38.5°C, you can use ibuprofen suspension for medication to lower the temperature. The main treatment is to identify the cause, and a blood test can be used for reference in treatment. If the cough lasts for more than a month and accompanied by shortness of breath during coughing, it may be allergic cough. It is recommended to go to the hospital for a detailed examination or use asthma treatment medications for diagnostic treatment.
