Question
How to treat a baby’s fever and cold?
Answer
For a baby with a fever and cold, you can administer children’s paracetamol and chlorphenamine granules, Four Seasons Antiviral Oral Liquid. If the fever exceeds 38.5 degrees, apply a fever-reducing patch like Merck’s Fever Patch to the baby. Make sure the baby drinks plenty of warm water and wipe the forehead, armpits, and neck with alcohol. For low-grade fever, physical cooling methods such as increased water intake, frequent urination to expel heat, taking a warm shower or applying a fever-reducing patch can be effective. If the body temperature is above 38.5 degrees, oral fever-reducing medication such as Merck or Tylenol can be taken. If the fever persists for 2-3 days without improvement, it is recommended to seek medical attention and undergo blood tests and CRP tests to identify the type of infection.
