What temperature is considered a low fever for a child, and what temperature is considered a high fever?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

No more than 38 degrees, it's considered a low fever and you don't need to go to the hospital. Because babies' body temperatures are naturally a bit higher than adults', just give the baby more water and pay attention to monitoring their body temperature. If it exceeds 38 degrees and reaches 38.5 degrees or higher, you should go to the hospital in time to see a doctor, as it would be considered a high fever. You will need to give the baby fever-reducing medication.
