Question
Can babies eat fruit when they have a cold and fever?
Answer
Babies can generally eat fruit when they have a cold and fever. Although fruits are cold, this usually is not a problem. You can slightly warm the fruit with hot water before serving it. During the early stages of the cold, giving the child some ginger syrup can help alleviate symptoms. At the same time, it’s important to strengthen the child’s care to prevent them from catching a chill. Additionally, closely monitor the child’s fever situation. If the body temperature exceeds 38.5 degrees Celsius, consider using some fever-reducing medications. Wishing the child a speedy recovery.
