Patient's question:
My mom hasn't been able to cook recently and often says she feels dizzy and has a headache. The key is that I don't really know what's going on, but she just seems a bit unwell. Please advise on how to treat a fever when a 1-year-5-month-old baby is sleeping soundly.Doctor's answer:
Hello, your baby's fever may indicate an infection or other issues. Generally, fever-reducing medication is not recommended if the temperature does not exceed 38.5 degrees Celsius. If it does, you can use fever-reducing medications such as ibuprofen suspension, Xiao Chaihu, or Motrin, combined with antibiotics like Amoxicillin or Cephalosporin. Make sure to drink plenty of fluids, maintain warmth, and avoid irritants. It is recommended to take the child to a regular hospital for a detailed examination.
