Question
Lately, my child has been crying and fussing constantly, and even after seeing a doctor, no issues were found. I would like to ask, can a baby get a fever from heatstroke?
Answer
Heatstroke in babies often comes with high fever, with body temperature possibly rising above 40℃. Other symptoms include red, hot, and dry skin, disorientation, and even coma. In the event of heatstroke, it is essential to seek medical attention immediately and to lower the child’s body temperature as quickly as possible.
