Question
My child is 1 year and 1 month old and has a fever at night. How should I handle this?
Answer
Fever is usually caused by bacterial or viral infections and is primarily treated with antibiotics. Simply using fever-reducing medication is only a temporary solution. It is recommended to undergo routine blood tests to determine the cause of the infection before treatment. If the fever recurs, it may indicate that the inflammation has not been controlled or that the antibiotic being used is not suitable.
