Suspecting indigestion, we took her for pediatric acupuncture and were prescribed Chai Gui (Cinnamon Bark) + Er Zhi Ling oral liquid. At home, she had a dose of Er Zhi Ling and went to sleep. When she woke up, her spirits remained poor, she was clingy, cried easily, and would cry at the slightest touch.,37.8,,,4,,,,,,,,5,39,2ml,,,,,39？Doctor's answer:
I am a doctor who has resigned from FastAskDoctor, and I am very happy to help you solve your doubts. When a baby has a fever, if the baby's hands and feet are cold and feels cold, it is most likely in the feverish stage; if the baby sweats and feels hot, it is most likely in the persistent high-temperature stage or the feverish stage. If the high fever persists for 2 to 3 days without subsiding, accompanied by headache, nausea, vomiting, or convulsions, and poor mental state, it is necessary to go to the hospital for further and careful examination. The above is advice on the question "Daughter is 7 days away from her first birthday and has a fever of 38 in the morning." I hope it helps you, and wish you good health!
