What are the reasons for the baby's scalp fever?

Patient's question:

These days, my boss said my spirits aren't good, affecting my work performance. Actually, I didn't mean to, I always can't sleep at night, sometimes feel like my heart is racing, not feeling well. If it gets serious, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. Please ask, what are the reasons for a baby's scalp getting hot?

Doctor's answer:

The thermoregulatory center function in children is not yet fully developed, and they have thin subcutaneous fat, a relatively large surface area, and poor epidermal keratinization, making them prone to heat loss. Additionally, children have a larger surface area of the head, leading to more heat loss, which is why you might feel the scalp is always warm. It's nothing to worry about. There's likely no major issue, so please rest assured.
Rifampicin is a broad-spectrum antibiotic and is also a first-line medication for antituberculosis treatment. It is primarily used to treat tuberculosis. For pneumonia caused by different types of bacteria or whether it is pulmonary tuberculosis, it cannot be said directly whether it can be treated. The child's condition must be assessed. This medication should be used with caution in children under 5 years old.
