Patient's question:
Hello everyone. The baby has had a high fever for the past two days. Yesterday, it finally subsided, but now he has a rash all over his body. I'm very scared and quickly took him to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor said it's nothing serious, just a case of infantile fever with rashes. Could you please tell me how to take care of a child with this condition?Doctor's answer:
Emergency care for young children is usually caused by a viral cold. First, there will be a fever, with symptoms of increased body temperature. After the fever subsides, red rashes may appear on the skin. If there is a high fever, you can take fever-reducing medicine like Tylenol. If there is no high fever, you can use physical cooling methods for treatment. In these days, it is important to drink more boiled water and eat a light diet. Generally, it will not last more than a week.
