Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
Generally, fever-reducing medication is recommended when the temperature exceeds 38.5°C. Children's body temperature fluctuations are larger compared to adults. So you can wait and see, drink more water, and use moderate physical cooling. You can use alcohol to wipe the palms, soles, forehead, and armpits. You can apply ice packs to the armpits. If the temperature does not show a decreasing trend, medication to reduce fever is still necessary.
