Patient's question:
Last night I had a fever. A few days ago I had a little runny nose, coughed, but he with a cold doesn't eat medicine. Baby is 2 weeks and 3 months.Doctor's answer:
Medical Analysis: Hello, fever is often caused by bacterial or viral infections invading the body, triggering a defensive response. It is important to address it promptly to avoid serious adverse consequences. For your baby's current condition of 38°C, there is no need to take fever-reducing medication at this time.Recommendations: You can give your baby infant acetaminophen and chlorpheniramine. Physical cooling methods can also be used, such as wiping your baby's forehead, chest, and back with warm water. If the fever returns, it is necessary to take fever-reducing medication promptly. Additionally, your baby should take anti-inflammatory medication, such as cefixime granules or azithromycin granules, as well as antiviral medication, such as ribavirin granules or antiviral granules. Encourage your baby to drink plenty of fluids.
