Question
Why does a one-year-old baby keep having repeated low fever?
Answer
There can be many reasons for a child to have low-grade fever, including upper respiratory infections, enteritis, tonsillitis, pneumonia, and various infectious diseases. A one-year-old baby may also develop fever due to urinary tract infections, gastrointestinal disorders, and hand, foot, and mouth disease. Typically, bacteria and viruses are the most common causes of infections in babies.
