Question
My baby is 2.5 years old and has a slight fever. Just now, my mother gave her a fever rectal suppository, but it was accidentally inserted into the vagina. I gently removed it with my hand. Is there any interference? I’m quite worried, how could I be so careless?
Answer
Generally, if there is no broken skin, there should be no problem. It is recommended to pay close attention and observe carefully. I don’t know how much the baby’s body temperature is, but if it is below 38.5 degrees, consider using medication. If it’s below 38.5 degrees, drink plenty of water, use a cooling patch, and wipe with warm water.
