Question
What should I do if my 7-month-old baby has a fever for two days and can’t seem to get it down? What are some ways to quickly reduce the fever?
Answer
Considering the child’s symptoms and medical history, it is likely that the fever is caused by an upper respiratory tract infection. It is recommended that you give the child plenty of fluids and administer ibuprofen suspension for fever reduction. Then, you can go to the hospital to check the blood count. If the blood count is high, oral anti-inflammatory medications can be taken for treatment. If the blood count is not high, treatment with taurine for cooling and detoxification can be used.
