Question

Why does a child just have a fever?

Answer

Fever in children is a common occurrence, usually caused by a cold. Since their temperature regulation center is not fully developed, they are easily affected by external factors, leading to fluctuations in body temperature. If the child’s temperature does not exceed 38 degrees Celsius, physical methods of cooling can be adopted, such as using alcohol to wipe the body, or using warm water to wipe the face and forehead. If the temperature exceeds 38 degrees Celsius, consider giving the child ibuprofen suspension or naproxen.
