Question
How should I care for my baby who has a fever of 38 degrees?
Answer
It is generally recommended that when a baby’s fever does not exceed 38 degrees, physical cooling methods can be used, such as wiping the body with alcohol, or using warm water to wipe the face and forehead. If the baby’s fever goes above 38 degrees, consider administering ibuprofen suspension or naproxen as fever-reducing medication. At the same time, parents should closely monitor the baby’s mental state and condition changes, and seek medical treatment in a timely manner.
