Is it effective to use fever reducer patches for a two-month-old baby with a fever?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Here is the English translation of the provided text:
"Baby fever using fever patches is effective, commonly seen in purulent tonsillitis, pneumonia, enteritis, brain infection, and the initial stage of other infectious diseases. It is recommended to be hospitalized for examination to clarify the condition before further tests. Drink more water, eat more fruits, get adequate rest, and physical cooling may be necessary if needed.
Fever can be caused by various reasons, and treatment should be symptomatic. Fever reduction can be achieved using general antipyretic and analgesic drugs, such as paracetamol tablets, ibuprofen sustained-release capsules, or aspirin effervescent tablets. Alternatively, physical cooling methods like alcohol bathing can be used, such as rubbing the armpits and the sides of the body. However, it is essential to actively treat the underlying disease."
