The picture is unclear, the baby has had a fever for two days, and it is considered "acute upper respiratory infection." It is recommended to go to the hospital to see a pediatrician. If it is a bacterial infection, antibiotics should be used. If it is a viral infection, antiviral medication should be given, and the baby should be given plenty of fluids. Physical cooling can be applied. The above advice is for the question "Why does a 10-month-old girl have a fever for two days and low platelets?" It is hoped that it will be helpful to you.
