One-year-old baby, body temperature has been around 38 degrees, and has been taking medicine but not improving.

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Hello, if the baby's fever is above 38.5°C, it is generally considered appropriate to give fever-reducing medication, such as Chaihu Granules, Zaixin, or Motrin, which are all quite effective for fever reduction. However, considering the baby's relatively low immunity at this time, if the fever does not exceed 38°C, it is best not to give medication. Physical cooling methods can be used for treatment, such as rubbing diluted alcohol on the baby's palms and soles, or applying a cool towel to the baby's forehead. Additionally, make sure the baby drinks plenty of water.
