My baby is two and a half years old and suitable for using rectal suppositories to reduce fever. It accidentally got inserted into the vaginal opening.

Patient's question:

My baby is two and a half years old. She has a slight fever. Just now, my mom gave her a fever-reducing suppository, but accidentally put it into her vaginal opening. Then I gently removed it with my hand. Is there any interference? I'm quite worried.

Doctor's answer:

How could it be so careless? When extracting it, was the baby crying or restless? Generally, if there's no sign of broken skin, it should be fine. I suggest observing it more carefully. I don't know how high the baby's temperature is. If it's below 38.5°C, consider using medication. If it's below 38.5°C, drink more plain water, use cooling patches, and wipe with warm water. The above is my advice on this matter. I hope it helps you, and wish you a speedy recovery!
