Patient's question:
Female baby, how many months old, has been having a fever these days. It's the kind where the fever goes down but then comes back again, happening repeatedly. She eats dinner normally but cries non-stop. What should I do if my 7-month-old baby has a fever?Doctor's answer:
When a baby has a fever, if it is above 38 degrees and the condition is not serious, you can use cooling methods to address it. Measure the baby's temperature on time. If the temperature is below 38 degrees, then it is necessary to take the baby to the hospital for diagnosis to identify the cause and then provide targeted treatment. During the treatment period, the patient needs to follow a dietary regimen, maintain a regular schedule, actively participate in physical exercise, and regulate physical and mental health. It is also important to maintain personal hygiene to avoid bacterial invasion due to a weakened immune system.
