Question
What is the normal range for a newborn’s axillary temperature? What kinds of conditions can pediatric surgery treat?
Answer
A baby’s axillary temperature is generally considered normal if it falls between 36.5 and 37.5 degrees Celsius. However, if the temperature exceeds 38.5 degrees Celsius, further fever treatment may be required. Additionally, pediatric surgery primarily handles abdominal and urinary system-related diseases in children, including appendicitis, intussusception, and hernia.
