Question
The 10-month-old baby was fine during the day, but when we got home, we found that the baby had a slight fever, with a body temperature of 38.7 degrees. There are no symptoms of a cold. Is it possible that the fever is caused by indigestion?
Answer
Based on the description, the 10-month-old baby has a fever of 38.7 degrees at night without any symptoms of a cold, suggesting an upper respiratory infection as a preliminary diagnosis. It is recommended to give the child Qingkailing oral liquid and consider taking the child to the hospital for a routine blood test to determine the cause. At the same time, attention should be paid to keeping the child warm. I hope these suggestions can help you, and wish your child a speedy recovery.
