Very urgent. The baby's armpit temperature is 37.5 degrees. Is it a fever?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Low-grade fever, generally not exceeding 38 degrees, does not require the use of fever-reducing medication. Physical cooling methods can be primarily used, such as applying alcohol to the body and washing the face and forehead with warm water. If the temperature exceeds 38 degrees, ibuprofen suspension or naproxen can generally be taken.
