What should be done for children with fever?

Patient's question:

Female, 3 years old, my baby is usually fine during the day, but suddenly started having a fever at night. I'm very worried and want to know what to do about a child's fever?

Doctor's answer:

The condition of the baby may be caused by an upper respiratory infection, which is often due to viral or bacterial infections. You can give the baby some fever-reducing medication. It is best to have the baby's blood tested at the hospital for a diagnosis and symptomatic treatment. Different causes lead to different symptoms, and patients need to seek systematic and standardized examination at a reputable Grade III hospital as soon as possible to receive appropriate treatment. Additionally, patients should maintain a regular schedule, take precautions against cold and keep the room well-ventilated, eat light and soft foods, and drink plenty of warm water.
