Question

A 6-month-old baby has been suffering from persistent low fever for several days, with high fever in the morning and twitching. How should this situation be handled?

Answer

If a 6-month-old baby has been experiencing persistent low fever for several days, and the temperature is not particularly high with normal mental state, physical cooling can usually be used to help restore normal body temperature. However, if the baby develops high fever and twitching symptoms, it may be necessary to go to the hospital for a detailed examination to rule out other potential causes. General blood, urine, and stool tests may not find a specific cause, but this is a necessary step to ensure the baby’s health. It is recommended to undergo symptomatic treatment under the guidance of a doctor to ensure the baby’s health and safety.
