Question
Is a 7-month-old’s body temperature reaching 37.3°C considered a fever?
Answer
Firstly, you can use alcohol-based wipes to help lower the child’s body temperature. Next, it’s important to identify the cause of the fever, as it can be triggered by various factors, including infections, connective tissue diseases, and malignant tumors. It’s not recommended to use medication immediately without determining the cause. If diagnosed with pneumonia after examination, consider using antibiotics such as ceftriaxone or penicillin for intravenous treatment. At the same time, attention should be paid to daily care, avoiding irritating food, and maintaining good dietary and rest habits.
