Question
How should one handle a baby’s fever of 38 degrees?
Answer
A fever of 38 degrees is the body’s immune response to fighting viruses or bacteria, and a moderate fever can help strengthen the immune system and promote recovery. If the fever does not exceed 38.5 degrees, it is not recommended to use fever-reducing medication. If the fever goes beyond 38.5 degrees, consider using medication for fever reduction, along with physical cooling methods, such as drinking plenty of water. Physical cooling methods include using cold water to wipe the body, etc. If the body temperature can be lowered, there is no need to worry. I hope these suggestions can help you.
