Question
The 8-month-old baby has been suffering from a simple low-grade fever for the past two days, without any coughing or runny nose. What could be the cause?
Answer
Considering the possibility of bacterial infection, it is recommended to use antibiotics such as penicillin, cephalosporins, and antiviral medications like acyclovir granules, and to add Meilin oral liquid for fever reduction. Pay attention to rest and drinking plenty of water, and avoid catching a cold. Children have weaker immune systems, so they are prone to pediatric general surgery issues. For parents, do not panic and should promptly take the child to a top-tier hospital for examination and treatment. Also, make sure to give the child regular check-ups and use medication as directed by the doctor.
