What should I do if the baby has a fever of 38 degrees? Given Tylenol an hour ago and still...

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

First, exclude roseola. Roseola usually involves high fever for three days, not caused by a cold or infection. After three days, the fever subsides, and small red spots appear on the baby's body and limbs, which heal within a few days. During the fever, medication is not necessary; physical cooling and increased fluid intake are sufficient.
