Patient's question:
The baby is two years old and has gastroenteritis. They are having diarrhea, vomiting, and a fever. Hello, what should I do about the baby's gastroenteritis and fever?Doctor's answer:
If the baby has gastroenteritis and a fever, and my child's temperature is below 38.5 degrees, it is essential to consider giving them some fever-reducing medication to lower the fever. At the same time, it is also necessary to implement many physical cooling methods for the baby, which will be helpful for reducing the fever. If the fever is below 40 degrees, it is crucial to take the baby to the hospital promptly for treatment to avoid delaying the child's care. I hope my explanation helps you.
