Patient's question:
The baby has a low fever, with the temperature fluctuating around 38 degrees Celsius. Blood test results show white blood cells at 17.5 (reference range: 4~10), and hypersensitive C-reactive protein at 18 (reference range: 1~10). Additionally, the baby has diarrhea! The baby's throat is slightly red! The doctor prescribed Cloxacillin oral suspension. Is this a bacterial infection? The doctor also asked me to do a urine test to confirm if there is any urinary tract infection!Doctor's answer:
In this case, I suggest you can take Pu Dilan or Qingre Ning Granules, both of which are very effective. Rest more in bed, increase exercise, prevent colds, ensure indoor ventilation, drink more water, and consume nutrient-rich liquid or semi-liquid diets. Have proper bowel movements and eat fresh fruits. The above advice is for the question "What should I do if my 4-month-old baby has a low fever of around 38°C?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
