Question
What should I do if my baby gets a fever and rashes after receiving the measles vaccine?
Answer
Firstly, you can use alcohol to wipe down the baby’s body to help reduce the fever. Next, it’s important to identify the cause of the fever, as children can have fevers due to various reasons, including infections, connective tissue diseases, or malignant tumors. It’s not advisable to rush into medication without determining the cause. If the child is diagnosed with a pediatric respiratory system disease, parents should cooperate with the doctor for treatment, which may include gastrointestinal decompression and maintaining good hygiene habits. At the same time, parents should avoid letting their child be picky about food and ensure they have a balanced diet.
