Answer

Hello, based on the described situation, there are many possible causes of the baby’s fever, such as viruses and bacteria. It is recommended to visit a local regular hospital’s pediatric department for examination and blood tests to find the cause of the fever and receive targeted treatment. Monitor body temperature regularly; when it falls below 38.5 degrees Celsius, physical cooling methods can be adopted; when the temperature reaches or exceeds 38.5 degrees Celsius, consider using fever-reducing medication. Drink plenty of warm water and ensure adequate rest. Targeted treatment is the most accurate method of treatment. Some diseases like colds and rash diseases may also be accompanied by fever.
