Patient's question:
The day before yesterday, the baby ate pomelo. Waiting for stir-fried greens, these days the baby's bowel movements have been pomelo and vegetables. Now the baby still has a fever, with the highest temperature reaching 38.5 degrees. Test results: normal. Last night, after giving the baby a bath, a fever reducer patch was applied. This morning, the baby's temperature was 37.8 degrees. Is this fever related to eating the wrong food?Doctor's answer:
Your baby's condition is suffering from a fever caused by a gastrointestinal cold. Gastrointestinal colds are often caused by exposure to cold, consuming cold and unclean food, extremely cold and unclean diet, and overeating. The symptoms include nausea, dry vomiting, vomiting, and fever. Your baby has a history of consuming cold and unclean food, so the condition is related to bowel movements.It is recommended that you take Baoxiao Pills and Huoxiang Zhengqi Soft Capsules orally. During this period, pay attention to keeping your baby warm and adjusting their diet. Consume easily digestible foods, eat small meals frequently, avoid cold and unclean food, and spicy, irritating foods. Adjust your baby's clothing according to weather changes to prevent exposure to cold. I hope my explanation helps you!
