Question
My baby has been slightly feverish, and after taking medicine, she still has a fever in the afternoon. I don’t know what to do.
Answer
A baby’s fever may be caused by an upper respiratory infection or tonsillitis, often related to catching a cold and having a weak immune system. It’s advisable to have a blood test to determine the cause. If the fever is high, you can take appropriate doses of antipyretics and use physical cooling (cooling) methods or cold compresses. At the same time, ensure your baby stays warm, avoid exposure to cold, and take your baby to the hospital as soon as possible to identify the cause and receive proper treatment.
