Question
Parents inquire about whether to choose enema treatment (pushing the anus) or muscle injection (giving a muscle shot) when their baby has a fever.
Answer
Medical professionals suggest that when a baby has a fever, enema treatment should be considered first, and it is crucial to ensure the child consumes an adequate amount of water. If the situation requires it, one should go to a regular hospital’s pediatric department for diagnosis. Enema treatment is relatively gentle and has a smaller impact on the body. However, if diagnosed with respiratory system issues, immediate treatment is necessary, along with medication and good hygiene habits. The child should also maintain a balanced diet and avoid consuming irritating and cold foods.
