Question
How should one handle a baby’s fever reaching 39.5 degrees? What treatment methods have been tried, and what were the results? What kind of assistance is needed now?
Answer
A baby’s fever can be caused by various factors, including infectious and non-infectious reasons. Infectious factors are more common, such as fever. When dealing with a baby’s fever, it’s crucial to determine the cause and take appropriate treatment measures accordingly. If the body temperature is too high, it may lead to a febrile seizure in the baby, so measures must be taken to lower the body temperature, including medication for cooling and physical cooling methods. Specific medication should be taken under a doctor’s guidance.
