Question
The newborn has a high body temperature, body red spots, and vomiting. What should parents do?
Answer
Considering the possibility of infection, it is recommended to undergo a routine blood test to determine the cause. While administering fever-reducing medication, antiviral and anti-inflammatory drugs such as Xihuanning and ceftriaxone sodium can be taken for treatment. Since newborns may be threatened by infection, parents should take their child to the doctor promptly and avoid using unknown drugs on their own. Medications should be used rationally, and children’s symptoms should be closely monitored to help them receive timely treatment.
