Patient's question:
Consult a pediatrician! My child is nine and a half months old. Last night, they had a low fever and took medicine. I also applied a fever-reducing patch. In the morning, the fever was gone, so I didn't give them any medicine. In the afternoon, they had a fever again, almost 38 degrees each time. I gave them medicine again. What caused this? I didn't notice any symptoms of fever.Previous treatment and effectiveness: Took some medicine.
What kind of assistance do you need: Please tell me what's going on. I'm very worried.
Doctor's answer:
This is likely caused by a cold or a viral infection. You can appropriately use symptomatic treatment medications for the baby, while also needing to pay close attention and observe carefully.Medical advice: While administering medication to the baby, you can also encourage them to drink more warm water to help restore body temperature. If the baby has recurrent high fever or persistent high fever, it is necessary to take them to the hospital for timely examination and treatment.
The above is the advice for the question "What could be causing my child's high fever?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
