Question
How to handle a baby’s diarrhea and fever?
Answer
When a baby has diarrhea and a fever, it is recommended to take the child to a doctor immediately for a thorough examination. Depending on the doctor’s findings, some medications may be prescribed, such as fever-reducing and anti-diarrheal drugs. During treatment, the baby should drink plenty of water, avoid eating cold or hot foods, and ensure warmth to prevent catching a cold again. Usually, after a few days, the baby’s body temperature will return to normal on its own.
