Question
My baby, who is two years and three months old, received a vaccine two days ago. This morning, she started to have a fever with a temperature of 40 degrees Celsius. After taking fever-reducing medicine, she had another fever five hours later. Should I take her to the hospital for a check-up?
Answer
A fever after vaccination may be due to an immune system response. It is recommended to increase fluid intake, and if the temperature does not exceed 38.5 degrees Celsius, you can use fever-reducing medicine. If the high fever persists for three days or more, it is advisable to seek medical attention for a detailed examination.
