Question
The baby is eight months old and has started to have symptoms like a runny nose, shivering, and sneezing today. What should you do? Are these symptoms of a high fever? What medication should you give the baby? Do you have any experience with treatment and its effectiveness? None. What kind of assistance is needed? Is this a symptom of a high fever? How should it be treated?
Answer
These symptoms in babies are usually caused by catching a cold and cannot be simply judged from these symptoms. To determine the body temperature, a thermometer is needed. For the baby’s current condition, you can give them pediatric paracetamol and chlorphenamine granules, or pediatric compound paracetamol granules for treatment, while also ensuring the baby drinks plenty of water.
