Question
How to treat a 6-month-old baby with a fever of 38.3°C?
Answer
Such symptoms may be caused by an upper respiratory infection, often accompanied by coughing, runny nose, and fever. The child requires medical treatment. It is recommended to first ensure the child gets plenty of rest, consumes light, warm, and easy-to-digest foods, maintains a cheerful mood, drinks plenty of water, and avoids spicy foods. Closely monitor the child’s temperature changes, and if the child feels unwell, take them to see a doctor immediately to avoid delaying treatment.
