Question
I’ve had a fever for three nights in a row. In the morning, I feel nausea and can’t vomit, but after a nap, I feel better. During the day, I’m fine, but by 4 or 5 PM, I feel like taking a nap. In the middle of the night, I complain of stomach pain.
Answer
Hello, your baby’s fever could be caused by a bacterial infection or catching a cold. If the body temperature does not exceed 38.5 degrees Celsius, it is generally not recommended to use fever-reducing medication. You can complement this with physical methods to lower the temperature, such as using alcohol swabs or damp cotton balls to wipe the baby’s forehead or armpit areas. If necessary, visit the hospital for a routine blood test. If there is an infection, treatment with antibacterial drugs can be combined. Make sure the baby drinks plenty of water to help alleviate the condition. Wishing your baby a speedy recovery!
