How to handle a nine-month-old baby with a fever for two days?

Patient's question:

Baby, less than one year old, has been having a fever now. It's the kind where the fever comes back shortly after it goes down, with ups and downs. They are eating dinner normally but crying non-stop. How should I handle a nine-month-old baby with a fever for two or three days?

Doctor's answer:

You can give the baby a warm bath, drink more warm water appropriately, and cover them with a blanket, which might be the effect of the medicine. You can dry the sweat with a dry towel. Okay, there's no need to go to the hospital for now. When they wake up, drink more warm water, and give them warm water. Oh! Dry the sweat with a dry towel, and it's fine if there's no sweating. During the treatment, the patient needs to follow a dietary regimen, maintain a regular schedule, actively participate in physical exercise, regulate physical and mental health, and maintain personal hygiene to avoid bacterial invasion due to a weakened immune system.
