Question
The 6-month-old baby cannot lift her head, can roll over, and has normal appetite. She has no major abnormalities, but sometimes she shivers. How should I handle a fever in a two-month-old baby?
Answer
If the body temperature remains above 38°C, you can give her some ibuprofen suspension orally and make sure she drinks more plain water to help reduce the fever. Children’s cold medicine, such as Hushan or Haowawa, should also be taken. We know that pediatric neurological diseases can cause significant harm to children. If not treated promptly or if the treatment method is incorrect, the progression can be rapid, posing great harm to the child. Therefore, it is crucial to seek timely professional medical treatment at a regular hospital.
