Question
The baby is likely to have a fever again due to a cold or catching a chill. What should one do when a baby has a fever?
Answer
If the child’s temperature is above 38.5 degrees Celsius, physical cooling methods can be used. If the temperature is below 38.5 degrees Celsius, fever-reducing medication should be administered. During the treatment, attention should be paid to diet and regular sleep patterns, actively participate in physical exercise, balance physical and mental health, and maintain personal hygiene. Additionally, it should be avoided that the decreased resistance leads to bacterial invasion. (Missing information: Suggestions on how to prevent bacterial invasion should be added)
