Question
How should a 2-month-old baby be handled if they only have a fever without any other symptoms?
Answer
If a baby’s body temperature is below 38.5 degrees Celsius, there is no need for fever-reducing medication. Simply ensure they rest, stay warm, and drink plenty of warm water. If the temperature exceeds 38.5 degrees Celsius, you can administer ibuprofen or acetaminophen to reduce the fever, along with physical cooling methods.
