Patient's question:
The baby has had a fever for two days and hasn't subsided. What should be paid attention to in daily life?Doctor's answer:
If the baby's temperature exceeds 38 degrees, medication must be given to reduce fever. A high fever above 39 degrees can affect the child's brain development. It is best to avoid letting the child's temperature rise above 39 degrees. Never use ice packs, cold water, or alcohol to cool the child down. When necessary, follow the doctor's guidance and advice to give the child medication to reduce fever. It is recommended to give the child plenty of fluids, a light diet, and pay close attention to the child's temperature.
