Question
Is a 38°C fever considered high for a 10-month-old baby?
Answer
A 10-month-old baby with a 38°C body temperature falls within the fever range. Typically, a temperature above 38.5°C is considered high fever. If the child is crying and restless and not responsive, it may indicate discomfort. It is recommended to undergo anti-inflammatory treatment, and attention should be paid to keeping warm and staying hydrated. If the temperature continues to rise above 38.5°C, medication should be used to control the body temperature.
