Can babies with fever take probiotics to reduce fever?

Patient's question:

A four-year-old child has a fever due to indigestion. Can they eat probiotics? They have taken fever-reducing medication, but the fever is still at 38 degrees Celsius and occurs mostly at night.

Doctor's answer:

Food to Eat When You Have a Fever:
1. Milk
Milk can provide children with a certain amount of protein, and adding some rice soup in moderation can supply some carbohydrates.
2. Rice Soup
Rice soup can provide children with carbohydrates and has sufficient moisture, making it easy for sick children to digest. It is obtained by boiling rice until it is soft and then straining out the solids.
3. Mung Bean Soup
Mung beans are beneficial and have the effects of clearing heat, detoxifying, and cooling down.
4. Fresh Juice
In summer, you can drink watermelon juice, which has the effects of clearing heat, cooling down, quenching thirst, and promoting diuresis. In autumn and winter, you can drink fresh pear juice, which has the effects of moistening the lungs, calming the heart, stopping coughs, and expelling phlegm. Fresh orange juice has the effects of removing dampness, expelling phlegm, clearing the lungs, and promoting blood circulation.
