Patient's question:
Female baby, how many months old, has been having a fever these past few days. It's the kind where the fever goes down but then comes back again, happening repeatedly. She's eating dinner normally but crying non-stop. What should I do about a 3-month-old baby with a fever?Doctor's answer:
The weather keeps changing, and the child's immunity is weak, making it easy for them to catch colds and fever again. Currently, the child's temperature hasn't dropped below 38.5°C. You can give them a lukewarm bath or use cooling patches to lower their temperature. If the temperature is above 38.5°C, you need to give them symptomatic medication, such as fever-reducing drugs, to bring down the fever. If the fever reduction is not effective, you should take the child to the hospital for follow-up treatment. Wishing the baby good health.In daily life, patients should balance their nutritional intake, engage in more aerobic exercise to strengthen their bodies, and maintain a cheerful mood to enhance their immunity and speed up recovery.
