Patient's question:
Girl baby, how many months old, has been having a fever these days, the kind where it goes down and then comes back up again, back and forth, eating dinner normally, crying non-stop, please ask what to do if an eight-month-old baby has a fever?Doctor's answer:
Give oral phenylephrine and codeine suspension for fever reduction, then administer traditional Chinese medicine for clearing heat and detoxifying. If the body temperature is above 38.5°C, drink plenty of warm water and closely monitor the temperature and any other symptoms. If the fever persists, consider oral medication. The Xiao'er Chiqiao Qingre Granules are quite effective—try giving him some. Pay close attention to monitoring the temperature; as long as his spirits are good, there should be no major issues.The patient should develop healthy daily habits, maintain a regular sleep schedule, avoid smoking and alcohol, and increase physical activity to boost immunity and prevent recurrence of the condition.
