Question
What’s happening when a baby gets a fever at night and sweats out the fever in the early morning?
Answer
It’s most likely an infectious fever, possibly caused by viral or bacterial infection. Physical cooling methods, such as cold compresses on the forehead, should be used. For temperatures above 38.5 degrees, you can use ibuprofen suspension for temperature reduction, mainly focusing on treating the cause. It’s recommended to take oral anti-inflammatory medication and Qingkailing granules, and avoid spicy, irritating, and cold foods. Eating fresh vegetables is encouraged.
