A 7-month-old baby has a fever of 39 degrees, what should I do?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

That's a high fever. If it exceeds 38.5 degrees, it's considered high fever. At this time, you can drink more water, do physical cooling, wipe your whole body with warm water, apply fever reduction patches on your forehead, and take fever-reducing medicine temporarily, such as Tylenol or Advil. If the fever doesn't subside tomorrow or if it persists with repeated episodes, you should go to the hospital for a check-up.
