Patient's question:
A girl is 1 year old this year. For a while, she felt very tired and went to the hospital for a check-up, only to find out that she was sick. Please ask: What is the normal body temperature for a newborn?Doctor's answer:
Generally, axillary temperature does not exceed 37.4 degrees, and it is most common to be around 36 to 37. Your reading is just at the upper limit of the normal range. This needs to be combined with clinical diagnostic symptoms to make a judgment. Additionally, it is important to consider the baby's baseline body temperature. If the baseline temperature is around 35 degrees, even that can be considered a bit high.During the treatment period, patients should follow a balanced diet, maintain regular sleep schedules, actively participate in physical exercise, regulate their physical and mental health, and maintain personal hygiene to avoid bacterial invasion due to weakened immunity.
